For Flashback Friday this week we present this classic ‘photochrome’ postcard depicting the 1960s era ‘airport-modern’ Triangle Motel — and toss in a little Raleigh-Durham Airport history as an extra treat.
Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
For Flashback Friday this week we present this classic ‘photochrome’ postcard depicting the 1960s era ‘airport-modern’ Triangle Motel — and toss in a little Raleigh-Durham Airport history as an extra treat.
Our Flashback Friday postcard this week depicts the first clubhouse of Raleigh’s Carolina Country Club. At the time it was built in 1910 it was considered to be out in ‘the country,’ two miles distant from the city limits. Today the site is one mile inside the Beltline.
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!
