Perched up on Crabtree Creek along its greenway trail, for decades this bunker of a building welcomed guests of an old Raleigh staple - Swain’s Charcoal Steakhouse (and its sister slaughterhouse). A while later, it was home to a few nightclubs, and in recent years, to Long View neighbors and greenway passersby it’s been little more than an ominous compound to a stone warehouse/laydown yard.
A comprehensive redevelopment plan is underway to reinvigorate this iconic Raleigh landmark, including a planned addition to enhance the building and create connectivity to the greenway and its surrounding neighborhood. Conveniently located in the future New Bern Avenue Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridor across from WakeMed, this property offers a range of indoor and outdoor spaces ideal for retail or hospitality ventures.
