 While
Durham has its origins in tobacco and textiles,
it is now known as the City of Medicine. Durham is home to some
of the finest medical institutions and high tech businesses in the
Triangle-and in the nation. Here, you will find Duke University
and its world-renowned Medical Center. The Duke Blue Devils keep
basketball fans entertained each year, as one of the most successful
NCAA teams in recent history. But the city has more to offer than
basketball, medicine, and technology. An impressive downtown revitalization
has made room for many unique shopping and recreational opportunities.
Renovated tobacco warehouses are now home to critically acclaimed
restaurants and eclectic boutiques. The Durham Bulls Athletic Park
provides baseball fans a first-class arena to cheer on their prized
Durham Bulls. |
