Trinity Park blends historic homes and downtown walkability
Surrounded by downtown and Duke University’s East Campus, Trinity Park is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Durham. The variety of century-old homes adds historic charm to the city blocks, while the location near Main Street makes it easy to reach popular local shops and restaurants. Recreation is also easy to find, from the community’s namesake park on Trinity Avenue to the scenic South Ellerbe Creek Trail. Several major employers are a short drive, bike ride or walk away, and the Durham Freeway is just south of the neighborhood for longer commutes throughout the Triangle.
Trinity Park is one of Durham's original neighborhoods.
Trinity Park is on the National Register of Historic Places.

Early 20th-century homes blocks from downtown Durham
American Foursquares, Colonial Revivals, bungalows and Craftsman homes fill the tree-lined city streets in Trinity Park. Spacious front porches are common, and most lots are narrow but have deep backyards. The median build year in the neighborhood is 1940, and several homes date to the late 1800s or early 1900s. “The beauty of that period was you had a little more diversity in style. They weren’t cookie-cutter,” says Kathy Bennett, a Realtor at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices with over a decade of experience. Luxury condos have also popped up throughout the years, often on the edges of the neighborhood. Prices in the area vary, depending on the size and style of home. Here is a typical breakdown of costs:
Single-family homes under 2,000 square feet range from the lower $300,000s to the mid-$700,000s.
Single-family homes over 2,000 square feet cost between the mid-$700,000s and the upper $1.8 millions.
One-bedroom condos range from the lower-to-mid-$200,000s.
Condos with two or more bedrooms cost between the lower $1 millions and the upper $1.6 millions.
Craftsman homes with lush landscaping are prominent in the neighborhood.
The community is full of cottages and bungalow homes.

Local favorites on Geer and Ninth streets
Popular restaurants are located on all sides of the neighborhood. You can head south to Main Street for a beer and pub fare at James Joyce Irish Pub or try Ethiopian food at Goorsha. A short walk east of the neighborhood leads to more spots at the intersection of Geer and Foster streets. “Geer Street Garden is a popular spot. It was an old gas station converted into a restaurant, so it has a lot of character and charm,” Bennett says. The casual restaurant is known for its outdoor patio and comfort food, such as fried chicken and fish tacos. Heading west of the community, you can try Common Market, which Bennett says has a funky vibe. The combo deli and bottle shop has an extensive sandwich menu and plenty of craft beer. Other nearby options along Ninth Street include pizza shops, burger joints and diners. Groceries are available at the Harris Teeter on Hillsborough Road or Whole Foods on Broad Street.
The James Joyce Irish Pub and Restaurant is on Main Street on the neighborhood's south end.
