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

The Skyline from Dawson Street

Cars race down Dawson Street near its intersection with Lenoir Street in front of the Convention Center.

The Raleigh Municipal Building

This is a top-down view of the Avery C. Upchurch Raleigh Government Complex. Coincidentially, this was the location of the very first post to Goodnight, Raleigh!. You can also see a “then and now” series of the water fountain on Hargett Street in front of this building that has been dry for some time.

The Warehouses of the Depot District

I recently learned of this particular geographic area’s designation as “the Depot District”, through the announcement of the community forum set to take place today (3/30) at 5:00PM. So which is it? Depot District or Warehouse District? Warehouse seems a more apt description to me.
