Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
This week’s Flashback Friday postcard features an early image of Raleigh’s Union Station as viewed across Nash Square. The old building still stands at the corner of Dawson and Martin Streets, but you would hardly recognize it today.
Our Flashback Friday postcard this week depicts a quiet, moonlit springtime night on Capitol Square. But wait, where have I seen that moon before?
This week for Flashback Friday we present a ‘natural finish’ real photo postcard of the “Leading Drug Store in North Carolina” — Walgreen Drugs. In this post we also explore the beginning of the civil rights sit-in demonstrations of the early 1960s, and how Raleigh’s Walgreen’s entered the history books.
