New York Times: ’36 Hours in Durham’


In last Friday’s travel section, The New York Times featured “36 Hours in Durham, N.C.” The tobacco and textile industries left their imprint on Durham long ago, but now the historic brick mills and repurposed factories form the backdrop of North Carolina’s re-energized Bull City. Recently, artist studios and upstart galleries have multiplied in the flourishing downtown area, where new bakeries, pizzerias, tapas bars and food trucks – and trailers and buses and even the odd tricycle – seem to surface at every turn. The newspaper featured a cool mix of culture and food the new Durham blends.
