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

There is a Light that Never Goes Out

In my neighborhood is this quadruplex which has been vacant for years.

Somewhat intriguingly it has a dim light bulb that’s always on, and has been for a long time.  Every time I walk past it, I have that one song in my head.

It must be a Cree LED light. Very low energy consumption and it will last forever!

Want a tiny physical reminder of Raleigh? City-Blox are 2"x3" photographic prints mounted directly to wood blocks. You can support this blog by buying them at Etsy.
