But there’s never a whisper of casino activity joining the downtown scene. We see new bars, restaurants, and breweries emerging seemingly on a monthly basis there are new parks, galleries, and public squares there have even been proposals for new sports stadiums of late (even if it look as if it will be a while before Raleigh has any new professional teams).
Amidst all of the change and growth we’ve seen in Raleigh in the last decade (and Durham too, for that matter), casinos never come up.
