Summary
| Description | The North Carolina Executive Mansion, also known as the Governor's Mansion, is a Queen Anne-style mansion on Burke Square in downtown Raleigh. Constructed between 1883 and 1891, the building was built on a square that had been set aside since the city's founding in 1792 as a public park, and had formerly been home to the Raleigh Academy before work was started on the structure. Among the most grand houses in the state, the Governor's mansion is in close proximity to Oakwood and Blount Street, which historically home to many of the city's rich and well-to-do during the time period in which it was built. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970, today, the mansion is very well preserved in its original state on the outside, while the interior was updated in the 1920s with neoclassical features. It is a symbol of the state of North Carolina, and one of the most beautiful and impressive government buildings in the state. |
