Grundy flood control project
 Aerial view of flooding on the Levisa Fork River in Grundy, Virginia in 1984 Since 1929, Grundy has suffered nine major floods of the adjoining Levisa Fork River. After the inundation of April 4, 1977, many businesses did not reopen, and the buildings that housed them were abandoned. A project is underway to relocate most of the town to higher ground on the other side of the river. The project started in 2001 and consisted of blasting the mountain across the Levisa Fork to create 13 acres of land. After a few years of blasting, utilities were placed and new bridges across the river were built. A new downtown will be built that includes a multi-level Wal-Mart with a parking deck. Buildings with a backing on the river have been demolished and a new flood wall will protect the county courthouse. U.S. Route 460 will be routed to the top of the flood wall. Businesses formerly located downtown were relocated to an industrial building located just outside of town.State Route 83 will be rerouted to meet U.S. Route 460 down the street where U.S. Route 460 originally took a directional split to go through downtown Grundy. Additional work under study upstream reroutes U.S. Route 460 inland from its current path.

Education as a new sustaining industry Grundy is home to the Appalachian School of Law, organized in 1994 and opened in 1997, as well as the University of Appalachia College of Pharmacy which opened in August of 2005. Buchanan County brought ASL to Grundy in order to revitalize a town that had been in a steady economic decline since the town's Flood of 1977. ASL has brought a positive economic impact on its home town, including spurring construction of rental homes and the opening of additional businesses in the area. ASL has become a success story for the concept of higher education as an economic development tool.[2] The school has brought in $12 million to the local economy.[3]ASL's success spurred the conception and implementation of the University of Appalachia College of Pharmacy from 2003 to the date the doors opened in 2005.[4] UACP, like the Appalachian School of Law, was envisioned to be an economic redevelopment tool. In its short existence, UACP is achieving that goal for the Buchanan County community. For example, as the school opened, 80 apartments were being built down the street. The school is forecasted to bring in $20 million per year to the local economy.[3] The Appalachian School of Law (ASL) is a fully-accredited private law school on a four building campus in Grundy, Virginia, a small town near the convergence of Virginia, Kentucky, and West Virginia. ...

Appalachian School of Law
The Royal City area of Grundy, Virginia in 2002. In 1993, Norton, Virginia lawyer Joe Wolfe came up with the idea to create a law school in Central Appalachia. His idea was well received by local business leaders and a steering committee was founded in 1994 and grew to eighty members. The committee gained permission of the Virginia General Assembly to start a law school in 1995 and continued to secure endorsements from local civic associations and industrial development authorities. When Wise County, Virginia could not find the resources to start the school, Buchanan County, Virginia approached the committee in 1996 and offered the grounds and buildings of the former Grundy Elementary and Intermediate Schools to which the steering committee accepted.[5] A $1 million loan (which was later converted into a grant) financed the buildings' renovations.[2]The school opened its doors in August 1997.

University of Appalachia College of Pharmacy Citing a need to address a higher than normal age adjusted mortality rate (42% higher locally as opposed to the rest of Virginia) and a national pharmacist shortage, local leaders began to explore the possibility of a new pharmacy school in the region. In 2003, the Buchanan County Board of Supervisors commissioned County Attorney and school founder Frank Kilgore to start the school. Spurred by the success of the Appalachian School of Law, the school continued to raise funds quickly and recruit its inaugural class.
