Sir Walter Hotel Lobby
The Sir Walter Hotel is the last remaining grand hotel of the early 20th century in Raleigh.
Hotel Arcade and Lobby, Raleigh, N.C.
In recognition of Black History Month, we are publishing for Flashback Friday this week a rare postcard depicting Raleigh’s renowned Lightner Arcade. The hotel and amusement center once stood at the heart of the city’s 20th century African-American business district — E. Hargett St.
Hillsboro Street, Raleigh, N.C. (Redux)
A few weeks ago we published on Flashback Friday an early 20th century postcard view of Hillsboro St. as seen from the Capitol building. This week, we’re in the same time period, but the view is now looking up the street toward the Capitol itself.
