Awsome Pics
That looks like one clean city coming from jersey trust me. I cant wait Im in realestate investing, buying and renting , and buying older buildings and convertring them to apts or condos it looks like there is alot of opportunity there Nj and nY are so expensive I can't make any money up here. What do you think? oh plus the houses Im looking at around 200k would be 500 up here plus the taxes are 2k up here 7 k thats nice .

Thank you
Thank you so much for those photos North Raleigh Guy. While we were down there we spent a lot of time in Chapel Hill/Carrboro and Cary but almost no time in Raleigh (we drove down the main highway and back basically) so it's nice to see what we missed. I especially like the look of the museum area. I am looking forward to checking it out for myself.
Does anyone know if there is public transportation from Chapel Hill to downtown Raleigh? I am not good at driving in big cities and it would be nice to not have to rely on my husband all the time.

Good job as always, NRG. Nice to see so many of my stomping grounds in one photo collection.

The Triangle Transit Authority (TTA) runs all the bus routes between the various Triangle area cities. At least one or two routes run between CH and Ral.
Take a look at GoTriangle.org for maps and schedules of TTA, as well as the city bus systems of Raleigh, Durham, ChapelHill/Carrboro, and Cary, all at one website.

Wow! Great pictures!! Thank you so much for posting. We took a quick drive down by the state house during our visit in January, but we missed 98% of the city, based on your photos.
Were all those cranes (in the background of many of the photos) working on the convention center, or is there more construction going on? Is there a lot of new construction planned for downtown?

ok, I am from the south so I can say this....Only in the south in the summer do you see men wearing navy blue blazers with white slacks
NRG, you are amazing. Thanks for taking the time to do this. It really does help out those of us who are too far away to visit before we move.

NRG,
Another great job!
I have a similar shot of the WWII monument beside the Capitol Building, with Wachovia Building peaking over.
Mix of New, Older, and Much Older, like a lot of Downtown Raleigh.
