Abstract:
Raleigh’s historic Maiden Lane was born in the shadow of North Carolina State University, and part of a history steeped in fraternity parties and punk rock music. Despite its history, much of Maiden Lane will be re-developed into an apartment complex called Hillstone Cameron Village.

Phase Two of the Hillsborough Street Revitalization Project is underway. New turnabouts, sidewalks, and bike lines will be extended on the west side of the street and developers are building new mixed-use developments.

Abstract:
North Raleigh residents are angry after the city approved a new development project featuring a Publix Grocery store. The development will take place in the designed recreational area for the city and is inconsistent with the city’s 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Residents voted against the voting 522-23 and have petitioned the measure.

Abstract:
The construction of detached backyard cottages has been banned throughout Raleigh for decades, but many people are opposing the regulation over the popularity of tiny houses. A new proposal would allow detached dwellings citywide as long as they are built to code. Critics are afraid it would lead to urban blight and downtown neighborhoods will lose their appeal as people could turn the dwellings into slums.

Abstract:
The Bolton property has been labeled the most important property in Raleigh. The property has a chance to become a destination for people due to its location near Hillsborough and West Morgan streets on a primary route heading out of downtown. It is also located at the site of a proposed light-rail line making access easier. A call is made for the city to rezone the property to produce an excellent urban development on the property that will benefit the community and draw people to the area.

Abstract:
Urban planner Dan Douglas has a vision to stimulate Raleigh’s development that is based on designs from major European cities. Douglas’ plan would see various groups in Raleigh donate 120 acres of vacant or underutilized land to Capital City Partners. The group would then take the land and hold an international plan to produce the best possible masterplan for downtown development. This could include new public squares, transit stations, high-tech businesses, high-density, affordable housing, and arts and cultural hubs. The number of jobs downtown could double and the number of people living downtown could increase by 10 times the current amount.

Abstract:
The transformation of Raleigh from a small, compact city to a sprawling metropolis characterized by regional development, regional shopping malls and office complexes occurred during a relatively brief period in the last quarter of the 20th century. Now, in the early years of the 21st century, two Raleigh-based developers are working to internalize that pattern by creating places that reclaim a sense of intimate scale. These places would integrate work space and living space, as well as provide an opportunity for people to park their cars and stroll comfortably and safely to dozens of retail, dining, and entertainment choices.
