What They Are Saying About Durham
The New York Times’ “36 Hours in the Research Triangle” said, “Anyone not on a hunt for serious Mexican food might drive past Taqueria La Vaquita, an unassuming freestanding structure with a plastic cow on its roof, just five minutes from Duke. But if you did, you’d miss tacos made with corn tortillas, uncommonly delicate discs topped with exceptional barbacoa de res or carnitas that you eat at one of the picnic tables out front.”
Southwest Airlines’ Spirit Magazine said, “I came to the American Tobacco Campus to see Durham’s history, and if I can just get past the present, there’s plenty around. Though Washington Duke built most of this complex in the late 1800s for his booming American Tobacco Company, this historic district now holds more than 50 businesses, including five restaurants, a public radio station, a new glass-encased performing arts center and the world’s most famous minor league baseball team, the Durham Bulls. The Campus also anchors the 22-mile American Tobacco Trail, the longest greenway trail in the area.”
