Get 50% off your __Southpoint Access__ subscription!\n\n Stay Informed About DPS! \n\nPreservation Durham’s 2026 home tour will spotlight one of Durham’s most storied neighborhoods as the nonprofit marks the 100th anniversary of Hope Valley. The tour, titled “Hope Valley Centennial,” will feature eight houses built within the neighborhood’s first decade, offering a look at the early architectural vision that helped define the community.\n\nLaunched in 1926, Hope Valley was planned around the Hope Valley golf course and country club and was designed for a new era of automobile-centered suburban living. Preservation Durham describes the neighborhood as one of Durham’s 20 National Register historic districts, known for its collection of period revival houses, including a number of early designs by Durham architect George Watts Carr.\n\nThe tour is scheduled for May 16–17, 2026, from 12 to 4 p.m. each day. Early-bird tickets are now on sale for $35 for members and $45 for the general public. General-public admission includes a one-year Preservation Durham membership for new members, and prices increase beginning April 1.\n\nSustainability Math: Funding South Durham Neighborhood NewsTo cover schools, growth, and local government with consistency, Southpoint Access needs more than subscriptions and sponsors - we need community philanthropy to bridge the early-years gap.Southpoint AccessWes Platt\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
