Local Limelight with Triangle Rock Club managing partner Joel Graybeal

• Its second Raleigh location at Salvage Yard — across the street from the Raleigh Iron Works development — will serve as its new flagship gym, Graybeal told Axios.
• The under-construction facility, expected to open later this year, will be 40,000 square feet, including an area with 50-foot-tall clearances, and will be adjacent to a new location from Cary brewery Bond Brothers.
