I'm not sure what thread this goes into, but I am interested to see how Downtown Raleigh is coming back.
When the pandemic hit, a LOT of local lunch places shut down. And when I started back in the office, it was actually mostly boarded up storefronts. It was kind of weird when you noticed it.
And now I am seeing that every single place has construction going on in that "someone is moving in soon" way.
I guess the bean counters looked at the numbers and decided that there is now enough in person work in this mid-sized Southern city to justify building out.
I guess we are back.
