2019 Map of Northwest Durham

About this map

Durham and its northwestern suburbs are defined by a complex network of residential growth and preserved natural corridors. The Eno River winds across the northern landscape, joined by tributaries like Sevenmile Cr and Cabin Br, while the Norfolk Southern rail line and Interstate corridors slice through the southern urban grid. This 2019 survey documents the transition from the city center to the wooded residential developments of the county line, featuring several significant religious and community landmarks including the Duke University Chapel Crypt and the Aldersgate Memorial Garden and Columbarium. Local water features like Huckleberry Spring, Wake Forest Reservoir, and Lake Unity are interspersed among established neighborhoods such as Braggtown, providing a clear record of the area's modern topography and infrastructure near the Orange and Durham County boundary.
