Tift Merritt, Grammy-nominated songwriter and Raleigh native, bought The Gables property in 2018 with business partner and co-owner of The Durham Hotel, Daniel Robinson.

N.C. State’s near-annual trip to Charlotte for the Ally Tipoff has not been kind. The Wolfpack made its third straight appearance in the early season and recorded its third double-digit loss in the event. Sunday’s matchup against No. 14 Kentucky was the largest margin of defeat, despite Khamil Pierre’s impressive offensive output. The senior scored 34 points — her highest total as a Wolfpack player — in N.C. State’s 93-78 loss to the Wildcats at Spectrum Center. “It’s cool, but I think I underst
