News from the 'hood


Durham County broke ground last week for a new courthouse. Eleven stories. $75 million. Just around the corner from the Durham Bulls Athletic Park! The grand building will open in the fall of 2012...as our neighborhood further improves! Click here for details from the Herald-Sun.

Meanwhile, Tobacco Road Sports Cafe - overlooking left field at the DBAP - will open in April. Check out their blog...including a great photo of the restaurant atop the outfield wall.


I took these pictures last week. Since then, the entry has been finished and the patio awning is complete.


Take a look at their menu. You will understand why this is a sports cafe as opposed to a sports bar. Let's call it cuisine sportif.
