Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
This week’s featured postcard is a first for Flashback Friday — a nighttime view of Fayetteville Street. Curiously, even though the view is supposed to be a night shot, a blue sedan appears to motor down the street with no headlights on!
This week’s Flashback Friday postcard features an early image of NC State University’s Holladay Hall. Except for the veil of ivy and the overgrown shrubbery, the building looks virtually the same today as it did when this card was mailed in 1907.
This week for Flashback Friday we feature a tinted white border postcard depicting the capital city’s iconic Confederate Monument. The grandiose 75-foot tall granite obelisk was the second monument to be erected on Capitol Square, and has anchored the head of Hillsboro St. since 1895.
