Raleigh stalwart The Berkeley Cafe finds a new home in face of development

• Fiction Kitchen previously announced a move to Gateway Plaza, north of downtown.

Why it matters: The Berkeley's existence had been under threat since its land was sold and new owners revealed plans to build a 36-story tower in its place.

What's next: The restaurant will remain open at its current location until October.

• It's expected to reopen in 2024.

What they're saying: "While we will miss our old home on W. Martin, we are thankful to be able to stay in the neighborhood," the restaurant said in its announcement.
