Another sunset over the future Raleigh Union Station. The planned March 21 groundbreaking was delayed and it looks like it’ll be this summer before we see any activity here on this site.
It will likely be July before any demolition or construction work begins at the Union Station site in downtown Raleigh’s warehouse district, confirms Scott Cutler, vice president at the Raleigh-based Clancy & Theys construction firm. Clancy & Theys is part of a joint venture partnership with Skanska USA in association with Holt Brothers Construction of Raleigh that will be serving as the construction manager-at-risk for the Union Station project.
*Raleigh delays March ceremony for Union Station project, construction to start in July
If you didn’t catch it, March 21 of this year was the 175th anniversary of the first train line to be completed in Raleigh. It was highlighted in an interesting article on This Day in North Carolina History.

I’m really excited about this project. I think this is going to be a game changer for DTR and obviously the WareHouse district.
Nice photo Leo!
Hopefully they don’t delay this project any longer. I am ready to see some action!
Don’t think the plans are approved. Got to get that done first. :(

Interesting article about transit today in the N&O! Seems these DMU trains can cover several needs at a reduced cost. http://www.newsobserver.com/news/local/news-columns-blogs/article18435236.html
