And i got very interested in it and would love to find out more information about it from people if anyone knows something about it please post on here because i have been here for 12 years and this is the first i have heard of this.
im just wondering if there is any more information on it because there has to be some kind of register of the stores and restaurants and clubs that was in there i think it would be cool to find out more on it.
Oh, this was our favorite place to go back in my college and post-college days! Some of the places I remember were The Pier bar/lounge that had great bands, Café Deja Vu and The Bear's Den, both clubs, and a high-end stereo store called Soundhaus. Before "my time", there was a place called The Frog and Nightgown (I believe that was the name), and an arcade at one time. Those were the days before NC had liquor by the drink but had brown-bagging instead. You could take your alcohol into the clubs and buy set-ups.
I went to the Village Subway all the time. It was modeled after Atlanta's Underground...only smaller. I ducked in Cafe deja Vu after work for a brew and to watch a silent film. The Pier was great for live bands, and I'll never forget listening to a pair of Bose 901's for the first time at Soundhaus. It's all still down there...abandoned and rotting.

Adding to this, does anyone remember when the Electric Mall on Hillsborough Street still had all its interior shops open? If you go in there now it is CREEPY.

Absolutely! Used to go there quite often.
Any idea what they'll do with the place?

As far as I know nothing. The shops that currently occupy the outer units use the inner units for storage. Such a waste of sqftage imo.
