The block that includes My Way Tavern was rezoned and seems to be headed for a 10-story development. Current leases will be honored.

I really like My Way but the current building is nothing special, so this is solid news IMO.

Same here. One of the few decent spots to watch all the college football games at once, and as a Chelsea fan itâs our soccer bar, but the replacement will be worth it.

Totally agree here (unlike Berkeley Cafe). I do enjoy the business and would like to see them exist elsewhere, or come back to the new development once complete, but nothing historical lost here and lots to gain.

Well, itâs the only building Iâm aware of that incorporated the exterior trees into the porch and roof.
But yea nothing significant worth saving considering this was the original building:
Replaced with this in 1999:

From the Raleigh Downtown FB page:
The 100 block of Glenwood Avenue is getting a facelift. The current assemblage including The Cupcake Shoppe, Mojito Lounge, and Kelly Odom Flowers is being redeveloped into a 2-story mixed use called âThe Row at Glenwoodâ with retail, restaurant and office space.
Led by Loden Properties, a local development group behind other past ITB projects such as Gateway Plaza on Crabtree Blvd. and Target across from NC State.

Loden has really done a great job on everything theyâve worked on so far. Really looking forward to it.

How do you interpret this? Will they be tearing everything down to build one new structure, or just updating the existing buildings?

I thought the old Askew-Taylor Art supplies store was being converted into a restaurant, but I think those plans have changed. Thatâs a shame I recall them having plans to incorporate outdoor seating facing the train tracks.
My wife worked with Loden on the Gateway project, Iâll see if she knows.

Yeah it was the fiction kitchen people and maybe someone else trying to open a restaurant but they made the slowest progress ever on that building, and Iâm pretty sure it got abandoned.
I, too, am curious if theyâre tearing this all down or not. And if that 3 story white building that just got an upgrade is being modified again for this, or not.

Iâm not interpreting it, but I assume that whatever they do will look great. Theyâve developed from the ground up and theyâve renovated. They did a great job renovating the Longleaf Hotel.

I donât think that renovation project has started, or if it has, has been completed yet.
Fair. I thought I saw something constructiony over there the other day, but I didnât get a good look. The picture in the post above made me think it had happened already. I guess itâs just a rendering. Even more curious now if thatâs still going to happen or if this new project will take it over.
The 3 story building that is 4 if you count Halcyon along Jones is under renovation now. Windows are out. Parking lot is fenced off with trash bins. Very much underway.

From this link, it doesnât appear that this is getting replaced with new buildings, rather it seems like they have all come under control of one landlord where they will be upgraded.
Certainly Iâm not under any fantasy that these buildings in part or in total wonât be razed and replaced with larger buildings in the future.

Would be a shame if they razed this block.
