Spaulding Community Neighborhood

The Spaulding Community is located on the southwest side of Downtown Durham, North Carolina. This is a fantastic neighborhood for students; University Drive bisects the neighborhood, which is adjacent to Duke University. The Spaulding Community includes some smaller neighborhoods, such as Lakewood Park and Morehead Hill.

Lakewood Park lies on the outskirts of the Duke University campus, just south of Maplewood Cemetery. The older urban community is surrounded by familiar Durham neighborhoods, such as Lyon Park, West End, Norwood Avenue, Burch Avenue, Duke Forest, and Tuscaloosa Lakewood. Downtown Durham is located due east of the Lakewood Park neighborhood on the other side of the Durham Freeway, Highway 147. In addition to having such close access to the downtown district, commuters living in Lakewood Park appreciate having a commuting asset like Interstate 85 located within minutes of their neighborhood.

Morehead Hill is one of Durham’s oldest neighborhoods. It is an established residential area filled with stately mansions, historic landmarks, apartment communities, and businesses. Morehead Hill overlooks the historic Tobacco District. Orchard Park, located directly in Morehead Hill, provides lush, grassy areas that are perfect for a sunny afternoon picnic. Grills, picnic tables, and a playground make Orchard Park an ideal family outing. Orchard Park is also the home to a community garden that is maintained by local residents and volunteers.

Residents of the Spaulding Community enjoy a location convenient to many popular Durham destinations. For example, golfers in the community need only drive a few blocks to reach the local country club, Washington Duke Inn and Golf Club. While, shopping enthusiasts seeking retail therapy can walk to Lakewood Shopping Center from their homes in Lakewood Park. Outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers can take comfort in knowing that Forest Hills Park is situated just a few blocks away.

Spaulding Community residents can enjoy culture, recreation, and entertainment at their fingertips at any number of local venues, such as Durham Performing Arts Center, Durham Athletic Park, or Duke University. Other nearby institutions of higher learning that bring jobs and student renters to the community each academic term include Durham Technical Community College and North Carolina Central University.
