The Tucker, One Year Ago
Almost one year ago, we were watching The Tucker go up in this post on January 12th, 2009. This is the type of development that the area needs to bring some good foot traffic to downtown and spur retail. I might call them up to see how full or not they are. Anyone have any [...]
The Tucker Now Open
While some construction is still going on, The Tucker is now open and ready for you to to sign a lease. This is the largest apartment project yet to come to downtown, unless something else decides to change to rentals, and should inject some pedestrian goodness all around Glenwood South.

The Tucker Construction Update
The Tucker apartment complex has been moving right along all last year. The end isn’t quite near but if the current pace continues, it may be safe to assume that it will be open this year. More rental units in downtown will help raise the density of the area. Glenwood South is about to get [...]

There is a reason this project has been quiet; nothing has been built. The old warehouse that stood in this spot, unused, has been demolished [...]
Demolition occurring at 712 Tucker
The Raleigh Chronicle is reporting that there are warning signs placed at the future site of the 712 Tucker project about demolition taking place. An entire city block just off of Glenwood Avenue where the Raleigh Office Supply used to be located will be demolished soon. The large brick structure will be torn down along [...]
