The style made a few appearances in Raleigh before World War II but is more strongly associated with the post-war period and the decades at the end of the twentieth century.\r\n\r\nThe most influential event on the architectural development of Raleigh in this period was the establishment of the School of Design at North Carolina State College in 1948. The school's first dean, Henry Kamphoefner, brought professors schooled in Modernism to the new architecture program. They built houses for themselves in the Modern mode throughout Raleigh and promoted Modernist styles for domestic, institutional, and commercial architecture. The faculty continued to practice architecture while they trained a new generation of local architects dedicated to Modernism.</p>","postscript_text":"","tour_img":"https://mail.raleighhistoric.org/files/fullsize/4c29996ff8383590ee5e751faa809dca.jpg","items":[{"id":187,"title":"Fisher’s Bakery & Sandwich Company","latitude":35.798844025676999081042595207691192626953125,"longitude":-78.62489334904199722586781717836856842041015625,"thumbnail":"https://mail.raleighhistoric.org/files/square_thumbnails/4c29996ff8383590ee5e751faa809dca.jpg","fullsize":"https://mail.raleighhistoric.org/files/fullsize/4c29996ff8383590ee5e751faa809dca.jpg","subtitle":null,"address":"1519 Brookside Drive","custom":{"subtitle":null,"text":null}},{"id":136,"title":"G.
