Olde East

OLDE EAST IS A SHORT WALK FROM DOWNTOWN RALEIGH
The historic Olde-East Raleigh-South Park is just a short walk from the Fayetteville St. corridor, and the oldest sections defined the edge of Raleigh’s original city limits. Development began in 1865 and continued to 1940 (although the oldest houses here date back to 1850).

This emerging neighborhood is anchored by the HBCU Shaw University and is marked by architectural styles that range from Neoclassical to Craftsman to Colonial Revival, and these houses are marked by quaint plots, gables, and well-kept gardens. More recently, at the junction of South Park and East Raleigh neighborhood, Monarch Property Co. bought and redeveloped the historic Carolina Coach Garage to open Transfer Co. in 2019 bringing a local food hall, market, and community event space.
