A makeshift homeless shelter growing throughout Raleigh, NC raising concerns for business owners in the area.
It's a tent city by the Interstate 40 exit ramp and off of I 540 near the Triangle Town Center Mall.
Business owners are complaining emailed ABC11 because they are concerned not only about the people in there but also the image it is conveying for the city.
The homeless crisis is rising by the minute in Wake County. Fifteen hundred people were counted as homeless in the most recent total, which is up 70% compared to this time last year. In the meantime, thousands of homes, apartments and condos are built with none considered affordable housing.
Side View, Nottingham Raleigh, Mid 70's, 20/30 tubing,27" wheels, Normandy high flange hubs laced to Sun M13II rims, Mafac "Racer" brakes and drilled levers, Berthoud fenders and flap, Brooks B-17, challenge bag and leather bar wrap, T.A. brake mounted front rack, V.O. rear rack, Nitto Technomic stem and Soma 3 Speed (Moustache) bars. This is a re-cycled and rebuilt 42/16 single speed converted bicycle.
All original White with Lagoon Blue enamel and gold headlug lining. Original Raleigh and Carlton transfers. Reynolds 531 butted main tubes and fork blades. Chrome on fork and stay ends is flawless.
Wheels are Normandy Sport hubs with Simplex skewers and Weinmann clincher 27" rims. Tires are modern Kenda 27" x 1.25" whitewalls. GB stem and Randonneur handlebar and the bar tape is old Hunt-Wilde vinyl. Dia-Compe #204 brake levers with white hoods have replaced the original Weinmann levers with white Carlton hoods. Brake calipers are Weinmann Vainqueur 999 model 750 center-pull. Stronglight model 93 crankset and bottom bracket with Lyotard 460 pedals. Simplex Prestige rear derailleur and Simplex chromed steel downtube shifters, but the original Simplex front derailleur is now a Huret 700. Seatpost is a Campagnolo two-bolt and the saddle simply marked San Marco is padded white suede on a plastic shell and with chrome rails - probably from the 1980s. Frame pump is an old Silca and the bottle cage and bottle are modern and inexpensive.
This was a middle tier bike, the lowest among the Raleighs to offer Reynolds tubing. With high brake bridge clearance this was intended to use both the clincher tires and even mudguards - which I will add soon. It was intended as a comfortable riding high quality recreational Sport Touring bike - not a "racer", and could be compared to a lower range "International". Really a great riding bike thanks to the long wheelbase. And, I think the color combination is one of the nicest Raleigh or any one has ever come up with.

Billboard for the former Raleigh Hotel in South Fallsburg NY, in the heart of what was one the Catskills resort region. The repurposed use is obvious.
The Raleigh, like many of the other hotels and bungalow colonies, have been bought by various Orthodox Jewish groups (Hasidim) and continue to operate as "camps" and "getaway" locations, and not as their former resort selves. In fact, many of the buildings go unused in this "resuse" of the property.
The Raleigh was one of the bigger hotels, like Browns, Grossingers, and The Concord. The Raleigh closed in 2006, and was bought in 2007 and reopened as a Hasidic community.

Raleigh Tavern, Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia. The Raleigh, established about 1717, is said to have been Williamsburg's preeminent tavern in the 18th century. Gatherings of all sorts occurred here, both formal and informal. When the royal governor dissolved the General Assembly in 1769, many of its members reconvened in the Raleigh Tavern to plan a boycott of British goods. A reception was held there for Peyton Randolph in 1775 upon his return from Philadelphia, where he had served as president of the First Continental Congress; in 1776, some College of William & Mary students meeting in the Raleigh's Apollo Room, formed Phi Beta Kappa; and a banquet was held in the Apollo Room in 1824 when General Lafayette returned to Williamsburg. The tavern burned in 1859, but information was available from various sources (including drawings, insurance policies, and archaeological research) to guide its reconstruction. Moreover, inventories from the 18th century still existed that were used in selecting furnishings for the reconstructed tavern. The green house to the right is the Alexander Craig house (one of the 88 original structures) and the brick building on the left is a reconstruction of a double built in 1765 to house the Unicorn's Horn apothecary and John Carter's Store.

Had this bike for Christmas in 1978, here I am trying a stunt up a steep gradient in Eastville park for the camera. This was the coolest bike of it's era (also available in sky blue).
It had twist grip gears and you could turn the ends of the mud guards against the knobbly tyres and it would sound like a motorbike.........
