The Joel Lane Museum House tells the interesting story of how Raleigh came to be. As you walk through the house that is adorned with vintage furnishings and other genuine relics of the period, you'll hear the story of how Lane, a prominent statesman and soldier, sold the 1,000 acres of his land for the formation of a new capital in 1792.
Coglin's Raleigh is a real BLAST from the past with lively '80s & '90s themed bar featuring pop-culture decor, events, games & karaoke nights located in the heart of downtown Raleigh with plenty of parking is available nearby.
How about getting a little exercise together while holding hands the whole time? The best idea for both of those things to happen is to go for a spin around the Raleigh Ice Plex on your next romantic date.
