Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
Our Flashback Friday postcard this week captures the charm of a Raleigh now long lost. Seen here are some of the elegant residences that once lined North Blount St. Across the street in this view was the most elegant of them all — the Governor’s Mansion.
Once again, Flashback Friday visits our capital city landmarks as seen on a Big Letter postcard of the 1940s. So, without further ado — Greetings from Raleigh, N.C.!
This week for Flashback Friday we feature another postcard depicting a historic downtown Raleigh church. The Church of the Good Shepherd has occupied the corner of Hillsboro and McDowell Streets since 1875; but the grand Gothic Revival building seen here is not the original structure.
