Looters took everything and even burned the mannequins.
And yet the business owner still has found compassion. Good guy he is!

Anyone who has shopped at Art of Style or has met Kendra, the owner, knows that she is invested in inclusiveness and in the Raleigh community. There is room to be both.

with all the greenery around it, how does anyone even see it? It looks even more like a cell phone tower. I think its time to move this.

Agreed! It needs to be moved to somewhere that you don’t have to drive to see it. Maybe it can be moved to the future Devereux Meadows park?

Yeah - I’ve driven by it many times and always assumed it was a cell tower.

It should be at the art museum with a plaque to give proper context for it in Raleigh’s municipal history. “Remember when a mirrored tower shaped mayoral races?”

Didn’t someone suggest moving it to the plaza in front of RUS? Any place that it a) gets plenty of sunlight and b) people can mill about it would be good for me. Devereux would have the added advantage of being visible from the Cap Blvd.

i would relocate it and put the stylized illuminated oak cylinders that used to be near a museum downtown as a gateway when entering on capital from the north.

Miami’s building a signature bridge at the end of I395 @ downtown that will have similar attributes to this. http://www.i395-miami.com/the-project/
