Greatness in the Making




What makes a city great? In Raleigh, we see greatness everywhere. From global tech companies and big name universities to world-class art and celebrated cuisine. We are a city whose time has come. But for all of our up-and-coming, there's still more to come. A space where our diverse community can gather together. Where we can share the fresh air, take in a concert, dip our feet in the creek, and stop and selfie with the sunflowers.


It’s been said that great parks define great cities. And this country’s newest great park is taking root, right here. People of Raleigh, get ready for a park that will be cherished for generations to come.


Dorothea Dix Park. Greatness in the making.

Great Events Happen Here



Greatness will shine on the new adventure playground, the plazas full of citizens, and on the stages set for rollicking festivals.
