Notes |
The Durham Buggy Company was incorporated in 1906. The company constructed a three-building manufacturing facility adjacent to the railroad tracks on East Peabody Street between South Holman Street and Cross Street in east Durham. A work force of fifty built about 5,000 buggies annually, many of the popular "Bull" and "Durham" models, which were sold throughout the South. By 1937 the facility was occupied by the Newport Lumber Company. The buildings no longer exist. |
