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

Walking By An Alley




It wasn’t exactly planned, but today must be “alley day” as I also posted an alley shot for Goodnight, Asheville! too. This one in particular is by the old Water Works building in the Warehouse District. If you look carefully you can see the Clarion Building poking out above the horizon.

Capitol Lights

The North Carolina Capitol building is a great place to visit during the day and at night. Under the lights it takes on a new appearance.
Did you know Edenton and New Bern were both once the capital of North Carolina before Raleigh? Read more fun facts at the state’s Capitol website.
