A construction worker fell Monday at the North Carolina Museum of History site in downtown Raleigh. Around 8 a.m., local media crews saw multiple firetrucks and Raleigh police officers at the construction site on Edenton Street. The Raleigh Police Department's chief told media that a worker fell in what was thought to be a confined space, which prompted a large emergency response. However, it is believed the worker's injuries were not serious. A Raleigh police vehicle was temporarily blocking traffic during the response. The museum, which has been at the downtown Raleigh site since 1994, closed in 2024 as part of a major renovation and makeover that is estimated to take between two and three years. The museum is on track to reopen to the public in 2028. https://lnkd.in/gVXvt63H
