RALEIGH, N.C. — The former home of a famous writer and gardener is at the center of a controversy.
The FarmHouse, a fraternity at North Carolina State University, owns the old Elizabeth Lawrence home on Park Avenue.
Fraternity members want to tear it down and build a new frat house, but others who live in the neighborhood want to preserve the property.
On Friday, some City Council members gave the fraternity a few days to find a solution that would both save the historic home and allow them to build a new house.
