Sunnyside is a district of Morgantown in Monongalia County, West Virginia. It is located on a hillside along the Monongahela River, north of the downtown campus of West Virginia University. [2] [3]

Once a student-run community adjacent to the old Mountaineer football field, it has since been torn down and redeveloped by WVU. [4]
