The capital of North Carolina was planned in 1791 on a site acquired by the state and laid out by William Christmas with a central square for the Statehouse and four subsidiary open spaces. By 1872, when C. N. Drie prepared this lithograph, Raleigh had become an important urban community with the Capital dome marking its center.
