THE ENTIRE RNOVATION AND PRESERVATION OF DOWNTOWN RALEIGH IS AMAZING! I PLAN TO LIVE REST OF MY YEARS PATRONIZING THE WONDER SHOPS AND ENJOYING THE SLENDID SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY! BEING BORN AND RAISED IN BHAM ALA. IT MAKES ME FEEL SO WELCOMED. WISH BHAM HAD DONE THE SAME! THE RETRO FEELING, THE OLD BUIDINGS PRESERVED, AND THE CONCERTS AND OPEN AIR MARKETS. WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK? AND NO TRASH OR HOMELESS ON THE STREETS. I COMMEND THE ENTIRE TOWN OF RALEIGH AND THEIR PEOPLE, WHO WOULD NOT LOVE IT! ONE BIT OF ADVISE, DON’T LOSSE THAT SMALL TOWN FEELING! FONDLY, A FUTURE RESIDENT!

I still have a difficult time believing that we have fallen for this design. First we complain about it being too block like, fine! Then, they level out the top and give it a little pointy hat and call it a spire. Are we stupid, or just afraid to turn down a design more than once. ITS THE SAME FREAKIN BUILDING!!! The first design looked better anyways. The first design was styled from the ground up to have that top. You cant just change the top of a building thats shaped like this without taking the rest of the building into account.

Not to keep beating that poor dead horse, but I still wish the balconies on the north side (not the pool side) weren’t so obvious. I think it is a visual distraction. Nevertheless, I’m glad to see it coming.

I like all the glass, but think it looks a bit like a cruise liner…
I just read in the N&O that the law firm Poyner and Spruill will be moving into RBC Plaza in 2008. That will bring about 150 more people downtown everyday. And a lot of them could afford to live in the condos down there. It will be interesting to see how all this development changes downtown in the next few years.
