Durham, NC Office Market Overview

Located in the heart of North Carolina, the City of Durham began as a railroad station and grew into a hub for the tobacco industry, followed by more growth due to the expansion of the textile and electric power industries. Today, Durham is an educational, medical, and research center at the confluence of creativity, industry and innovation. Notably, the current stock of office space in Durham is, to a significant extent, the result of several conversions of large-block historical properties left behind by the tobacco industry. The ambitious, large-scale renovations turned historic factories into offices, condominiums and restaurants, thereby reshaping the city’s central business district toward a future-facing economic strategy.

Outside of downtown, most of the development in the last few decades has been along the I-40 corridor. Office space here encompasses both traditional and flexible workspace models, and benefits from a wide array of high-quality amenities, as well as great connectivity to all major points of interest in the region. However, perhaps the most notable aspect of Durham is its inclusion in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Research Triangle Park (“The Triangle” or “RTP” for short) — a great regional collaboration that created a high-tech research and development center unlike any other in the country.
