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

Working Late at Vernacular Studio

The gentlemen in the photo above were working late (after 11PM) on a Monday evening. One can assume business is good for Vernacular Studio, as they somewhat recently relocated their base of operations to the corner of Hillsborough St. and Glenwood Avenue. They were previously located on Tower Street in the Oberlin neighborhood.
