Neighboring the Bull City’s vibrant downtown district, Durham City Center, Central Park is a hip, walkable, fun-filled neighborhood dedicated to the arts, recreation, and locally-owned businesses. This namesake community is home to the original Durham Bulls stadium, a skate park, gardens, a seasonal craft market, food trucks, and the Durham Farmers Market. Central Park is a great destination for dining with trendy coffee shops and southern-inspired eateries like Dame’s Chicken and Waffles and Saltbox Seafood Joint. The neighborhood also has a vibrant nightlife with hip venues in repurposed buildings or decorated to maintain an industrial chic aesthetic. For instance, Motorco Music Hall was formerly a car dealership. Since Central Park is so close to City Center, residents have access to even more entertainment, shopping, and dining options nearby. Catch a show at the Durham Performing Arts Center or cheer on your team at the new Durham Bulls Athletic Park. Brightleaf Square offers trendy shops and eateries inside historic brick tobacco warehouses.
With so much to do in this area, Central Park is a popular location for professionals and college students. Duke University and North Carolina Central University are both a five minute drive away. However, there are several excellent schools near the neighborhood as well, making it a great option for parents who want to raise their children in an artistic, vibrant environment. Overall, whether you’re an art aficionado, college student, parent, or someone who just enjoys being able to walk to their favorite store, Central Park is ideal for renters looking for an apartment in Durham.
