Oh wow! It’s changed so much since the last photo update!

It does look much smaller from this angle.

I’m still awaiting the photos that reveal the evil shadows!

I had one of my local spies go down to Fayetteville Street where they have evil skyscrapers and this was what they sent me.

The 5 floor 266 unit building at 5200 Hillsborough St & Youth Center Drive is in final building permits. BLDNR-049058-2024 will change that ugly corner.

This is exciting. So much redevelopment potential in this area. Let’s also not forget that this is a TOD study area from NCDOT’s S-Line plan, and they’ve already built a permanent station platform right down the street for state fair trains (and, hopefully, future regional rail).

Would be great to see more density along this stretch of Hillsborough to drive increased interest in a stop there. Would be great to train away from that area after Canes/NCSU games/other events. I’d rather walk a mile to a train than spend 45 min waiting for an Uber and getting out of the area.

This whole stretch of Hillsborough between Blue Ridge/Western will be interesting to watch in the coming years.

Don’t have a whole lot to say about this one except that living this close to Burke Bros Hardware would be like a dream come true. “Need a replacement stem for an odd 1930s era shower mixing valve.. what shall I do? Ebay? Amazon? Nah, let me WALK TO BURKE’S.” What an effing revalation!
