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

Pac-Man at the Old Building

How good of a detective are you? Goodnight Raleigh tries its hand at making a riddle wrapped around a trivia question for you in this post-snowpocalypse Raleigh world.

Racing up a slow hill to Raleigh’s untouched renaissance street, Pac-Man’s endless chase brings him and the ghosts around and around Raleigh. At lunch there’s a stop at Char-Grill for a refreshing bag of hamburgers. After that, the chase is back on! This authentic scene was caught somewhere between!

It looks like the Bain Water Treatment Plant. At least it would qualify for “Raleigh’s untouched renaissance street”.

This one’s a toughie, Paul. Would you consider giving our readers an additional clue?

There is a small brick building right next to the Clarion Hotel (Formerly Holiday Inn). This is the backend of that building. offset from Edenton St. with sidewalk side on Hillsborough St side.

326 HILLSBOROUGH ST
RALEIGH NC 27603-1726
