Dominion is very strong: Charter Square Tower, FNB Tower, PNC Tower etc. They have a good track record in DT Raleigh, and Charlotte too. I didn't see this one coming.

Actually I see a lot of cities bundling large projects these days.
This certainly seems to be the case for Raleigh. The multi-building Dillon project was recently completed, and the 3 (possibly 4) phase Smoky Hollow project is nearing completion of its first two phases. The Raleigh Crossing project is under construction with its first of 3 towers, The Nexus project will bring 4 more towers within the context of a unified project to the former News&Observer block. Then we have the two tower city-led project in the very core of downtown that's out for RFI right now, and the city is slowly moving forward on a multi-tower civic campus next to Nash Square. This list doesn't even include the stand alone projects that are also proposed. If all goes forward, Raleigh will be a completely different city by 2025.

Also - One Glenwood (or whatever it's called) should be included on this list. North Hills too, although it's not in downtown.

I hope to say the same for Greensboro when everything is finished, due to Greensboros smaller skyline, 10 new structures in the CBD is going to be a very dramatic change.

Man I gotta say I really love the way they did the alignment of the lights in the ceiling there. That coupled with the shear simplicity of there just being "red" for seating is just great. Nice job to their designers/architects.

Brunswick County is the fasted growing county in the state, and very high nationwide.

The seats are nice and wide for people who are a little larger. They are made of white oak I believe. The ceiling lights are actually count down lights before performances. Pretty cool. One major difference between the Tanger Center and DPAC is that DPAC has two main balconies where the Tanger has one. But at the same time, the Tanger Center has more seats. Tanger Center organizers were more concerned with sight lines which is why there isn't a second main balcony. Kudos to the architects for being able to squeeze 3,000 roomy seats in that space and they are all good seats with great views.

Percentage wise, it is the "fastest" growing, but nowhere close in terms of actual numbers of people.

Developments in Brunswick County would be discussed in the Wilmington subforum.
