In downtown Raleigh’s Warehouse District, Kane Realty Corp. is bringing the former Dillon Supply Co. building to life.  Now called The Dillon, it is the first mixed-use development of its kind in downtown Raleigh’s rapidly expanding, vibrant Warehouse District.  As you can see in the photo below, the shell of the landmark structure is preserved and rising out of the shell is a new 18 story tower for office space, two adjacent apartment buildings, 40,000 square feet of street level retail, restaurants, and even a signature rooftop dining destination. The development is scheduled for completion in mid-2018.

The Dillon isn’t the only major development on the block, either.  Right around the corner is Raleigh’s Union Station development.

The Union Station project is an $87M multi-modal transit facility in Downtown Raleigh’s Warehouse District.  It is planned to open in January 2018 for Amtrak passengers.  It also includes a Civic Hall for large public events and Commercial space used for retail, office, and restaurants.

Brett Evans, a manager at The Flying Saucer Draught Emporium (also right around the corner from the Dillon and a favorite downtown meeting place for Amy Bush Commercial) told Spectrum News, “It’s insane how much is happening around here.”   We couldn’t agree more!
