A crane has shown up at the construction site of the future Residence Inn hotel on Salisbury Street. The image above shows a view down Salisbury in front of the Raleigh Convention Center. The hotel will be seen above the front courtyard of the convention center when it tops out in the future.
This past weekend, the Levin-Tarlton house was moved from it’s home at 208 North Harrington Street to it’s new home at 414 New Bern Avenue. The good folks at Monarch Property Co. were behind the move. This makes way for the upcoming Greyhound Apartments that are planned for the Harrington Street site.
Below, I’ve embedded some of the Instagram videos from the move taken by Monarch that I thought were very shareworthy. Enjoy!

Demolition was taking place last week in front of the future Raleigh Union Station site. The smaller warehouse in front was planned to be removed for a grand entrance plaza for the train station. Below is a rendering of that entrance plaza.
A few of downtown’s music venues have this new parking zone out front for musicians.

The Edison Apartments, or more officially the Edison Lofts (official website), are coming along. No reason this project isn’t wrapped up this year, hopefully in the first half. They are now pre-leasing units.

Last night was the launch party for The Dillon. Outside of the local beer, food, and networking this model may have been the highlight. When you stare at the current Dillon Supply warehouse in the bottom left of the photo it gives you a sense of the real size of this project.
I apologize for the bad quality photo but this was more a drive-by snap. Foundation work is starting on the Residence Inn on Salisbury Street and I wanted to throw up this quick post to show that this project is now underway.
In case you haven’t seen it, the facade upgrade on One Hanover Square is finished. The columns from the previous build were removed and the outdoor space feels much larger. It gives City Plaza a modern feel as it more matches the renovations that took place to the plaza, especially the light towers.
