Historic Briggs Building/Raleigh City Museum (Raleigh, North Carolina)

USA / North Carolina / Raleigh / Raleigh, North Carolina / Fayetteville Street, 220
The red brick Briggs Hardware building is the only late nineteenth-century commercial downtown building to survive essentially unchanged since its construction. This was Raleigh's first skyscraper, and at one time the tallest building from Raleigh to the coast. The building's first floor houses Raleigh City Museum; its upper floors were recently converted into offices.

This building, former site of Briggs Hardware, houses the Raleigh City Museum, the A.J. Fletcher Foundation and others.
