The design guidelines’ first chapter, Introduction, provides more detailed infor- mation regarding the process for application and review of projects within the historic districts. The guidelines are not intended to be a comprehensive restora- tion or rehabilitation manual nor are they intended to provide a definitive method for preparing individual applications (resources for technical informa- tion are listed in the appendixes). Rather, these design guidelines provide appli- cants, the committee, and staff a basis from which to reach decisions and an assurance that consistent procedures and standards will be adhered to. In reviewing applications, the committee/staff considers the property itself, the street context within which it is located, and the special character of the entire historic district. A brief description of the character of each district is provided along with a map in the appendixes. Design Guidelines Format The guideline information is presented in a specific format used throughout the body of the document.

(New South) completed a historic architecture survey for the proposed Research Triangle Regional Public Transportation (dba GoTriangle) Project in downtown Raleigh, Wake County, North Carolina. The proposed project, termed RUS Bus, would include the construction of a facility on three parcels (totaling approximately 1.72 acres) owned by GoTriangle at 200 South West Street, 206 South West Street, and 210 South West Street. The existing buildings on the parcels would be demolished as part of the project except for the westernmost wall adjacent to the railroad. The prime consultant, WSP, is under contract with GoTriangle.

  • Existing Environment Water Resources
    SEHSR Richmond, VA, to Raleigh, NC EXISTING ENVIRONMENT A condensed format was used for this Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), as clarified in the Executive Summary of this report. The following discussion on the existing environment describes existing conditions associated with the natural environment, land features, air quality, noise, visual conditions, cultural and community resources, transportation, and infrastructure within the Southeast High Speed Rail (SEHSR) Richmond to Raleigh Project Study Area. The Study Area for the natural and physical environment, cultural resources, and infrastructure varies from 300 to 1,000 feet in width depending on the resource, and is centered about the existing rail line or right of way (ROW). In areas where the existing railroad curves do not meet the design standards for high speed rail, the Study Area expands to approximately 500 feet outside of the proposed rail realignments. The Study Areas for the human environment, noise, and air quality are generally larger than the Project area boundaries. The larger Study Areas are defined by regions of influence in which a resource may potentially have noticeable project-related impacts. Regions of influence for human resources account for factors such as community sizes, geographical and political boundaries, and census boundaries. These human resources include social and economic issues, community resources, and land use planning. The air quality Study Area is influenced by local and regional atmospheric conditions. The noise Study Area is determined by the limit of noise intrusions associated with the project. All references to “Study Area” and “Project” below pertain to the Richmond to Raleigh Project, unless otherwise noted.

  • Raleigh, North Carolina
    Coordinates: 35°46′N 78°38′W Raleigh, North Carolina Raleigh (/ˈrɑːli/; RAH-lee)[6] is the capital of the state of North Carolina and the seat of Wake County in the United States. Raleigh is known as the "City of Oaks" for its many Raleigh, North Carolina [7] oak trees, which line the streets in the heart of the city. The city covers a land area of State capital city 147.6 square miles (382 km2). The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the city's population as City of Raleigh 474,069 as of July 1, 2019.[4] It is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country.[8][9] The city of Raleigh is named after Walter Raleigh, who established the lost Roanoke Colony in present-day Dare County. Raleigh is home to North Carolina State University (NC State) and is part of the Research Triangle together with Durham (home of Duke University and North Carolina Central University) and Chapel Hill (home of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). The name of the Research Triangle (often shortened to the "Triangle") originated after the 1959 creation of Research Triangle Park (RTP), located in Durham and Wake counties, among the three cities and their universities. The Triangle encompasses the U.S. Census Bureau's Raleigh-Durham-Cary Combined Statistical Area (CSA), which had an estimated population of 2,037,430 in 2013.[10] The Raleigh metropolitan statistical area had an estimated population of 1,390,785 in 2019.[11] Most of Raleigh is located within Wake County, with a very small portion extending into Durham County.[12] The towns of Cary, Morrisville, Garner, Clayton, Wake Forest, Apex, Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, Knightdale, Wendell, Zebulon, and Rolesville are some of Raleigh's primary nearby suburbs and satellite towns.
