What does Po-boy mean ?  Do you have "WHITE PRIVILEGE" ? 

By looking at his picture I would assume that it refers to a po boy sandwich.  Might want to give a little more thought before posting, it's easy to take things out of context on these forums.

the new 10 story building Block 83  next to One Glenwood is underway and the hotel seems to be wrapping up. Today.  All apart of Raleigh Rising. New Origin Hotel.

Bloc 83 the next door tower to One Glenwood has snagged an anchor tenant and will make the tower almost 30% preleased.

""Bloc83 developer Heritage Properties announced Thursday that Envestnet, Inc. (NYSE: ENV) has signed on as a marquee tenant at Tower Two., The firm will fill a total of 81,810 square feet on the tower’s 8th, 9th, and 10th floors. Envestnet will be relocating from its current location at 421 Fayetteville Street. ""

the quicker the office space is leased up quicker someone will start the next tower.

Can someone explain why some buildings are erected with steel frame and others are reinforced concrete? Is steel frame cheaper (and therefore not as high quality)? Have fluctuations in prices of steel vs. concrete been a factor?

A few pics of everything from yesterday.  Unfortunately I only had my phone with me.

If a building has integrated parking like the many North Hills towers by Kane or the Dillon downtown they need to use concrete for the parking levels for fireproofing reasons. If parking is not incorporated in the building as is the case steel framing can be used which is generally a little cheaper than an all concrete building.  Steel frame high rises can go up somewhat faster but just depends on the design of the building.  In Charlotte we had a 26 story tower Ally Center all steel framing go up with parking garage detached then another 33 story office building that went up across the street all concrete due to some parking being incorporated into it.

In addition to being able to support integrated parking, I  would assume that building a highrise over a certain number of floors  as a steel structure is highly risky. Steel is not as sturdy as concrete.

Bloc 83 tower and its parking deck under construction.  Question I thought the huge deck behind Origin Hotel was going to serve both towers but I guess not.   Photos from today walk by and from afar. 

[KJHburg]

Heritage Properties proposing 18 story office tower next to the Origin Hotel and first parking garage at 615 W Morgan.

From a subscriber article today:

https://www.bizjournals.com/triangle/news/2020/06/23/more-development-eyed-for-raleighs-bloc-83.html

""Heritage Properties plans for the latest phase of Bloc83 after filing a rezoning request with the city to allow for the development of a new 18-story mixed-use office tower.  Plans filed with the city call for ground floor retail, parking and office space. The project would be situated on a pair of properties at 615 W. Morgan St. and 117 S. Boylan Ave., owned by Crocker Family Properties LLC and Betty Poole Brinkley respectively.""

^THIS is OUTRAGEOUS!

What you are looking at on the right side is the facade on Hillsborough Street, one of the main approaches to the State Capitol of NC. Did the Raleigh Planning Commission really approve a 7-story striped parking deck WALL to front an entire half block at the street's transition point from suburban to urban form? The buildings' designs don't bother me, but I'm astonished that a city that purports to have good planning would allow this to happen.

This parking deck though...

[KJHburg]

Glad to see someone has a camera in Raleigh @nicholas   I still very much like this project Bloc 83 and One Glenwood the hotel and now even a taller building proposed. 

[KJHburg]

sister building to One Glenwood, the Bloc 83 tower is inching closer to completion.   Nice plaza area between the 2 buildings too.  Today. 

I thought the huge parking garage behind the hotel was to serve both building and the hotel but guess not. 

[KJHburg]

Today Bloc 83 drive by.  The park area between the 2 buildings is going to be really nice. 

[nicholas]

It's great that these are helping to link Glenwood South and the Warehouse District.  But man....could that garage be any less-screened without being totally naked?
