The City of Durham is exploring what new uses of the historic Durham Athletic Park may benefit the Durham community more. This plot of land is 5.42 acres large and is located in a part of Durham where density of residents has increased over the last twenty years. The current use of this space as a baseball field is underutilized and the City of Durham wants to hear from residents about how this land can be used in the future to better serve our Durham residents. Get more info about the feasibility study at the Project Page.
Phase One of public input for the Durham Athletic Park Feasibility Study will close on February 28, 2025.
*Given that this is publicly owned land, the City of Durham does NOT seek to sell or use this land for private use such as privately owned or rented condominiums. Open space is lacking in the urban center of Durham and this space shall remain accessible to the public.*
