Show Off Things From Other Cities

I live in Glenwood South and walk to the Village District all the time along the flat Johnson St. route that follows the Pigeon Branch creek.

Someone needs to get out the pressure washer!
That said, I love these Deco era capitols!

Yeah I think it helps that we actually have stuff going on besides just being the capital. Like Iā€™m sure Jefferson City and Juneau are great, but we only know them because of their status as a capital. I couldnā€™t care less about our historic Capitol building. I didnā€™t grow up here and itā€™s not my history. Itā€™s just a decoration in the city I chose to live in because I like it. Iā€™m happy if it makes people happy. Frankly, Iā€™m much more interested in our new and upcoming municipal complex. But thatā€™s for a different thread.

Glad to see this is having tangible impacts. I hope other cities take note and begin to push back on the NIMBYism that often prevents reasonable development.

A few shots from London. Raleigh will never be an international financial or former imperal capital, but there is some really cool design here.
