Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
The underground music scene is returning to Cameron Village — this time above ground on Daniels Street near Carolina Café. Cameron Village Live kicks off at 6 p.m. on Friday, April 25 with a DJ on stage. CV Live is a nod to the Village’s fabled history in the emergence of local rock music while celebrating today’s newest music and fashion. Live is a free public event, and will run to 10 p.m.
This week Flashback Friday picks up our postcard tour of the state government buildings encircling Capitol Square. We began our tour nearly a year ago, and have visited the Justice Building, and the former NC Supreme Court and Revenue buildings thus far. Our fourth stop is the former Education Building on Edenton Street.
Raleigh’s long lost Olivia Raney Library is the subject of this week’s Flashback Friday postcard. The beautifully detailed building, which, to me, evoked the image of a grand ‘Italian palazzo,’ once stood prominently at the corner of Hillsboro and Salisbury Streets, opposite the State Capitol.
