Last week our team attended the 2024 Preservation NC Conference held in Rocky Mount and Tarboro. Founded in 1939, Preservation NC promotes and protects buildings and landscapes of our state’s diverse heritage. The organization’s initiatives are very near and dear to our own, and we look forward to this conference and the educational opportunities it provides each year.
Purple Bowl’s new location is up and running! The beloved acai bowl and smoothie bar recently moved down the block to 505 W Franklin St in Chapel Hill. This building is best known as the former home of the Chapel Hill newspaper and later as TOPO Distillery.
Construction has commenced at the historic Boylan Pearce & WT Grant buildings! These Fayetteville St staples are recognizable to many Raleigh residents. This historic tax credit project will connect the two buildings with a plan for retail on the 1st floor and office space upstairs.
Crawford Brothers Steakhouse will be opening in Fenton later this year! The highly anticipated restaurant will serve signature in-house dry aged beef and will offer an exquisite wine program. Keeping true to the Crawford Hospitality brand, the design is hospitality driven with a focus on experience based dining. Guests can enjoy a different dining experience each time they visit.

Things are really heating up on Morgan Street since Wolfe & Porter opened earlier this year!
Some of you may remember 905 W. Morgan St as the dive bar Drink Drank Drunk and Atomic Salon; you also might recall the building was completely divided between the bar, the salon and the basement below.
In the fall of 2023 the owners of Heights House bestowed a unique honor upon the individuals and businesses who supported their vision and helped make Heights House the beauty it is today. They did so by crafting a menu that features 6 signature cocktails dedicated to and named after those who played an integral role in the design of Heights House. What’s more is they did it so thoughtfully; with each cocktail truly embracing the essence of its namesake.
If you’re in or visiting Wilmington, make sure and go to the corner of Castle & 3rd St. where you’ll find Olivero…Raleigh Chef Sunny Gerhart’s newest restaurant concept which couples spectacular Spanish-Italian-New Orleans themed fare and stunning design.
We are exceedingly grateful to be included in this Walter Magazine article!
This was such a fun project, and we were thrilled to partner with Janet to restore and repurpose this Historic Boylan Heights home. It’s always exciting when our team has the opportunity to work alongside someone who’s equally passionate about historical preservation.

Between local favorites Trophy Brewing and Irregardless, sits a trio of houses located just as the road begins to bend towards Hillsborough St. In 2022 these buildings were purchased with a vision of bringing new life and purpose to the structures (which had fallen into a bit of disrepair), and a project aptly named “The Bend” was born.
