Please enjoy my first book about a small neighborhood in Raleigh--Caraleigh--that has had a significant impact on Raleigh's development. In Caraleigh's history, the origins of Raleigh’s north-south divide can be seen in many economic, psychological, social and political perils. While the Downtown South project promises a bright future for Raleigh in 2020, a close examination of the city’s economic and social stratification in the past reveals the city’s unequal economic and social stratification, resulting in an affluent north Raleigh and a pauperized “south Raleigh ghetto.” This work illuminates previously unrecognized aspects of Raleigh’s history, namely how an outskirt neighborhood shaped the city’s expansion during the twentieth century.
