In an effort to learn and share more about our community, I started a feature on The Top Five newsletter, to figure out what places or spaces people liked most in the Triangle.

Brandon Cordrey
1. Cup-A-Joe on Hillsborough Street
“About 8 years ago I was waiting in line, turned around, and my future husband was standing right behind me. Every time I get a cup from there, I can still see him, just like he was on that day.”
2. Rialto
“Still the most intimate place to see a movie in Raleigh. Feels like you’re seeing a film with a whole theater full of friends.”
3. LGBT Center of Raleigh
“They do such vital work in our community and their space is a welcoming intersection for people from all walks of life.”
4. Alexander YMCA
“Butterfly and Miss Pearl are the real reasons I get out of bed and make it to the gym each morning. Any member will understand, immediately.”
5. Reader’s Corner
“What a cozy hole in the wall. Once I walked in and the person at the register yelled “I saved a book I thought you’d like, let me go get it”…I’ve never felt more like a celebrity in my life.”
