Raleigh’s newest burger joint is set to open on Monday, and the new location for the nightclub FuBar across from the Stanhope on Hillsborough will be welcoming guests for the first time next Thursday. Plus, renovations at Biscuitville & Player’s Retreat!
A 1960s-era office building at 1620 Hillsborough is set for a significant expansion that will add another 4,000 square feet of second-story office space over a surface parking lot. We also take a look at the surprisingly rich history of this property, which started off as part of the Cameron Park neighborhood.
Planning Commissioners only heard one rezoning case at its most recent meeting: a Northwest Raleigh town home development they recommended Council deny. The property owners subsequently withdrew their application before Council got a chance to vote, so we try and find out what that means for the future of this property.
In a surprise move, Councilors voted 4-4 on whether to approve a text change legalizing short-term rentals, a vote that will send the matter back to the drawing board. Plus: everything else that happened over the five and a half hours that Council met for on Tuesday.
On this week’s Teardown Tuesday, we’ve got three clusters of residential demolition projects to look at. Are any of these demolitions tied to a larger project? We try to find out.
Permits have been issued for the brand-new Corporate Center Apartments in West Raleigh, not far from the PNC Arena and for Phase II of the Brighton Pointe Apartments, which will add 88 units of senior living to this far North Raleigh development.
A glance at Council’s agenda for this week almost reads like a greatest hits of some of the City’s most contentious and talked about issues: Amplified outdoor noise permits! Sidewalk dining! Affordable housing! Airbnb rentals! A crucial change of conjunctions in the Unified Development Ordinance!
In our latest edition of On The Record, we sat down with Raleigh City Councilor Kay Crowder to discuss growth, neighborhood preservation and improving the City’s transit system.
We’ve got two new bars and three new restaurants to look at this week, including Tir Na Nog’s replacement & Stanhope’s latest restaurant tenant.
In today’s Development Beat, we take a look at the number of rental properties available in Raleigh and map out their locations across the city.
