I took another lunchtime walk down F-street today. This time as I took in the sights of a changing Raleigh downtown, I began to really appreciate one building which has stayed the same: the Sir Walter Raleigh hotel. It is truly a beautiful, grand old building, one that still shows the ritz it was known for when it was still a hotel.
If I ever won the lottery I’d buy it and reopen it as one of downtown Raleigh’s most elegant hotels.
