Abstract:

Developer, James Goodnight, purchased a building in Raleigh for renovation, but did not plan to begin construction on the building until 2016. N.C. State School of Design student, Shelley Smith, contacted Goodnight and is now leasing the space as an art studio and exhibition area until construction begins. Smith hopes that this example of using free space will become a trend in the Raleigh area, for it is a great opportunity for local artists.
