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

Mary Ellis – Contributing Writer

I moved to Raleigh from Dallas, Texas about ten years ago to go to NC State. Since then, the city has been constantly changing and growing, but the incorporation of Raleigh’s history into that growth has always been interesting to me. I won’t claim to do photography, but I’ll gladly admit that I nerd out over anything aesthetically pleasing with a story/good history behind it.

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.
