Raleigh, N.C. — The new Raleigh Convention Center will have a signature glow once it is built.
The city announced Wednesday a $1 million donation from Cree Inc., of Durham. The money will be used to build a shimmer wall on the outside of the convention center's western side.
Using LED technology, the 9,000-square-foot wall will display an oak tree for Raleigh's distinction as the City of Oaks.
