Completely original and never-before seen angle of downtown.

FNB tower shows up nicely in the money shot.

Of  course if they could have done 10 more stories we'd have 4 big towers (~30 stories) instead of just 3.  But they were limited with this site. So were happy with 20.

North hills is really booming

from my weekend trip highlight reel featuring Durham, Cary, Raleigh and Apex. 

on other note given the development and how people cross county lines I wish this was one big metro area Raleigh Durham Cary Chapel Hill  as so many people cross county lines for one thing or another.  I realize it is a CMSA but I think it should be one big metro area and it would rival Nashville in size actually be bigger.   I realize some people only commute to Wake from eastern or northern counties and same thing for some counties north and south of Durham but so many people cross the the county lines between Durham and Wake the 2 core counties.

I regard Raleigh, Cary, Durham, and Chapel Hill to be one metro.   I go to all of those places routinely, and they’re all within 25 to 30 minutes of Ch Hill.

The Triangle is totally a single region, despite this silly designation of separate regions for Raleigh and Durham. 

But Durham leaders wanted it that way because they're butt-hurt about being called "Raleigh-Durham", and now the whole area suffers by missing out for relocations and new projects that only consider larger metros.

It was early in the morning and was still pretty cloudy to begin with.  I assumed that the smoke was coming from a Duke powerplant.

something I have not seen in Charlotte this winter so far is a little man made of snow.  Snowman in Fuquay who evidently likes to play tennis.    Jordan Lake what a nice but cold day.

Some love for two primary Triangle cities Raleigh and Durham.

You just so happen to catch the Wake Forest Rd/I-440 interchange in the first photo at the least busy time.
