Last week I did a thread on the South Central CAC & the next day the @ NYT ran an article about that area. This week I am doing a thread on the Gleenwood CAC. Maybe a major paper can pick it up as well! Avg. 2018 new home in South Central was $438,000 in Glenwood it was $1,190,000
This CAC hugs the NW corner of ITB. with kind of east & west wings around Gleenwood Avenue. Apparently the Glenwood - I440 interchange is in there & just a little land on the other side of that. Glenwood CAC covers ~2,271 acres & the Carolina Country Club part of it.
The sections of Ridge Road that you may have heard about from “Save Ridge Road” is all in this CAC. https://abc11.com/traffic/raleigh-neighbors-fight-road-expansion-near-crabtree-valley-mall/3513327/ … You can see that Glenwood Ave is where flow through traffic goes, & Glen Eden & Ridge Rd are how the people who live here get around.
This is clearly the ITB CAC (most of Midtown is outside of ITB) that has the lowest density zoning. Vast majority cannot even have a duplex built. Some parts are 2 units/acre which is really low zoning. There is an small NCOD overlay in there and watersheds around the highway.
