Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night

The Clarion Building


My first few experiences with photography downtown involved the Clarion Building. In fact, the third post to this blog included a picture I took in 2004 from the top of the Clarion Hotel when the Tower Lounge and Restaurant was in the process of being built/formed. I also had another post where the top of the Clarion Tower looked like a UFO because the middle part was obscured by trees.
I’m not sure how some in the local architectural community in general feel about this building, but I view it as a landmark and am very proud to have it in my home town.

Garland H. Jones Building

According to the Wake County official web site, this building houses certain Human Services department programs, the Register of Deeds and the Revenue Department. The Garland H. Jones building is located at 300 S. Salisbury St. and is one of the remaining examples of modernism that prevailed in the 50s and 60s in downtown Raleigh.
