Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night

The Emerging RBC Plaza (In the Rain)


The quality of this pic is pretty low because the rain was shifting in all directions (including on my lens!) so I didn’t want to stick around for a long exposure.

According to godowntownraleigh.com,

In addition to bringing RBC Centura’s corporate headquarters to downtown Raleigh, the tower will offer additional office space for lease, as well as retail space and for-sale residential condominiums. It is expected to be completed in late 2008.

and …

Standing 540 feet tall, RBC Plaza will be the tallest building in downtown Raleigh and will encompass more than 730,000 gross square feet of space, including office and retail space, parking and 11 stories of residential condominiums.

2008 Goodnight, Raleigh!
