New W.N.A.O. — Radio and Television Center
This week for Flashback Friday we feature another classic 1950s-era photochrome postcard. It depicts the studio building of Raleigh’s first television station — WNAO-TV. We will also explore the building’s previous life as a swank 1940s-era night club.
Fayetteville Street, Looking towards State Capitol, Raleigh, N.C.
After two and a half years of posts, I’ve lost track of all the ‘Fayetteville Street’ postcards we’ve featured on Flashback Friday. Most of them depict Raleigh’s ‘Main Street’ looking north toward the State Capitol. So, why not? Let’s visit the scene yet again — the year, 1946.
