Abstract:

One of the largest regional shopping centers in the southeast, Cameron Village, located in Raleigh, North Carolina, began with the purchase of 158 acres of land in 1947. Realized and developed by Willie York and Raymond Bryan, Cameron Village grew into a shopping mecca and residential neighborhood, offering the first air conditioned homes for sale in the state.
