The city has done an amazing job with this area of the city. The American Tobacco District is a nice stop to a night out. Clean, safe, and great food.
Signs to the neighborhood could be better but once there it is a nice place to visit. Plenty of reasonable parking and good food and drink nearby. Good for "kids" of all ages - strollers and teens seemed to have an equally good time
This is a pretty sweet section of Durham to visit -- it's been resurrected from industrial ghost town to a bustling place to meet people and have a good time. It's great for pre-baseball meet ups.
This has to be one of the most well designed, re-use project I've ever seen. There are things for everyone taking place here year-round. Outdoor skating rink in the winter, summer concerts, food year-round, outdoor fireplace with great seating. A lively environment for the whole family. Don't miss it!
Whether you want to enjoy a great meal (e.g., Tylers, Cuban Revolution, Mellow Mushroom, ++) or enjoy music (summer) or skating (winter) or simply enjoying the rushing river, water throughout the campus, this is so definitely part of Durham. You'll enjoy every moment.
Didn't think I'd find the birthplace of smoking interesting but I'm so glad I went. Keep an open mind and you'll learn why tobacco deserves a rightful place in North American heritage.
Good restaurants, great atmosphere, running water features, nostalgia and good entertainment with easy parking.
My mom worked in this factory several years ago. The only similarities now are the gleaming wood floors. Lots of dining options here for real food before a ball game or show at the DPAC.
The former factory has been re-purposed with restaurants and shops. There was even an ice skating rink in place for the winter season. Pretty and interesting to walk around and see the city that tobacco built!
This is a most delightful place to shop, dine and enjoy the historic atmosphere of an era gone bye, never to return.Whether you live here, are visiting or just passing through, this place won't disappoint.
