Durham residents complain of late-night parties
The Trinity Heights area, across from Duke University’s east campus, has tree-lined streets and a mix of historic homes. Though the area may appear peaceful, some residents say late night parties are disrupting the area.
Posted — Updated“They’re all talking on their cell phones. It’s 2 in the morning,” said Duke music professor Phil Rupprecht, who lives on Clarendon Street in the middle of Trinity Heights.
Residents and the city council are trying to schedule a meeting with Duke President Richard Brodhead to discuss the issue.
Durham City Manager Tom Bonfield is working on a letter to Brodhead that will include renewed complaints about the Trinity Heights neighborhood.
Duke spokesman Michael Shoenfeld says the university has been working closely with Trinity Heights residents about their concerns and will continue to do so.
