Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
Despite the Triangle’s high number of midcentury modern houses, there aren’t that many located inside inside of 440. The Voorhees House (above) is one example, located at 2727 Mayview Road. Triangle Modernist Houses has raised awareness of its looming demolition. It is listed on MLS as a lot only, with a sketch of what a neoclassical house in its place may look like.
Corner of West St. and Morgan St.
Seemed appropriate to find a basketball goal this AM. I think there was a NCAA Championship game the other night if you call it a game and NC State has found a new coach. I grew up in Raleigh during the Norman Sloan era, some of my best childhood memories were watching the Wolfpack play with my dad at Reynolds Coliseum.
Our Flashback Friday postcard this week features an early view of the campus of Shaw University. The scene depicted is at the corner of Wilmington and South streets. Seen in this view are, left to right, Estey Hall, Mansion House and Shaw Hall.
