(For the complete Bull City Rising article, please click here) “For a long time, the old Weeks-Allen Motors building has been one of the more intriguing real estate plays in downtown Durham, with on-site parking, Alivia’s-style big garage doors, and a funky shape making it a much-rumored site for everything from restaurants to the Durham Central Market food co-op.
There’s plenty of other action happening in the vicinity, from Common Ground green building supplies and Cross-Fit Durham to Fullsteam Brewery under construction across the street, and with Manbites Dog Theatre and Claymakers just down the street, along with the under-renovation King’s Sandwich Shop.
And now, you can add music and nightlife to the picture. BCR has learned that there is at last a modern use planned for the building at the corner of Geer and Rigsbee downtown.
Word is there’s a pending bar/club set to open in the Weeks-Allen building, possibly as early as late spring/early summer.”
