Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
With the school year winding down to a close, Flashback Friday drops in this week on Raleigh’s oldest high school still in use — Needham B. Broughton. The monumental building has stood prominently at the corner of Peace and Saint Mary’s Streets since 1929.
This week Flashback Friday revisits the ‘tourist home’ era of Raleigh’s US Highway 1 north/south corridor through town. We’ve traveled this route before in earlier posts, so visit with us again this week as we stop in at Mrs. Chamblee’s Tourist Home on Blount Street.
Back in February this year Raleigh’s historic Crabtree Jones House was successfully moved to its new site by Preservation NC. This architectural treasure now needs to be prepped for a grand open house later this month. You can help us ‘get our house in order’ by attending the Crabtree Jones House Clean-Up from 9 am until 12 noon this Saturday, May 10, 2014.
