Raleigh council OKs credit union tower, teen center
The Raleigh City Council voted unanimously Tuesday in favor of a preliminary site plan for a 12-story, mixed-use building that the State Employees Credit Union plans to construct downtown.

City officials also presented a report to the council Tuesday about plans to open a teen center downtown.

The Parks and Recreation Department would operate the St. Monica Teen Center, and the city plans to partner with private groups to develop youth programs. The Raleigh Police Department is assisting with the project.
