View from the Boylan Bridge Brewpub patio. Best view in town, I think. Click for bigger version.

It looks like Jibarra should be opening really soon. The construction is over, the tables are set, and the only things missing are drinks behind the bar.

Demolition fencing is up around the Garland H Jones building. Sad that renovation did not happen here. The floors are being gutted out now so get down there and take some last minute pics before the future occurs.

BB&T, why do you hate downtown? Why can’t you turn on your lights when it gets dark? You spent all that money on upgrading your signage recently and now you want to stay in the shadows while tons of people roam downtown during dinner time. Stop showing up late to the party and flip the switch before the sun sets, ok? Thanks!
(total joke but seriously they kind of do turn the lights on a bit too late)

State Highway Commission and Museum of Art in one building on East Morgan St.
I found an old photo taken off the NCDOT website of the building in 1923. Looks like the art museum came after the Highway commission.
I’ll be out of town for several days so blogging slows down yet again. I’ll be somewhere that has plenty of skyscrapers to make you skyline fanatics pee your pants.
