With a sizable increase in foot traffic in downtown Durham, we [business owners] are seeing an increase in business and are purposing ourselves for the dynamic inner-city growth to come. The evidence of growth can be seen in all around the city. To the North, Central Park's district offers vibrant community of Arts. Take a walk along Foster Street and you'll find everything from art galleries, antique wood works to a performing theater. The Central Park District also offers two great outdoor event facilities; The Pavillion at Central Park and Historic Durham Athletic Park . As visitors and local residents rediscover downtown Durham this area is sure to become the Mecca of local and regional artist.
