- Walk: Multiple coffee shops, restaurants, grocery stores, bookshop (Regulator).
- Hike: And the neighborhood is always great for a stroll and a chat with the neighbors.
- Breakfast: Monuts when we're feeling naughty or Elmos if we're in the mood for a full breakfast.
- Lunch: The Common Market has great sandwiches and beer on tap in the basement
- Dinner: Have to give a shout out to Dains Place on Ninth Street, great bar, great burgers, and great people.
- Pub/Winery: The Green Room of Bull Durham fame, old Durham landmark and true dive in the best possible way.
- Living Here Has Been: The neighborhood and home have been great, we just need a bit more space for our growing family. We have loved living in town being within walking and biking distance to so many things. We will definitely miss our neighbors.
