The Vega

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.
