Occupy Raleigh protesters want to set up a permanent site for their campaign, the News & Observer reports:
Huberman, who has lived in Raleigh for 35 years, said Occupy Raleigh wants to relocate to the Avery Upchurch Park at Dawson and Morgan streets, beside the city parking deck.
“There we can have shelter, food and our support teams,” Huberman said. “It’s two blocks from the Capitol, so it will allow us to maintain a presence at the Capitol with people carrying signs.”
Here are some photos of the park. One immediate consideration: There are a smattering of ritzy downtown condos right across the street from the proposed “tent city.”
