Each week, we share – through pictures – what the folks behind Durham Mag have been doing around town. We’re always out and about, just because we love this place; we hope you’ll comment with what you’ve been doing, too!
The Durham Hotel
On a hot afternoon, catch a cool breeze (and eventually some cool drinks!) on top of the new The Durham Hotel, and take in the view of downtown.

If you celebrate your birthday at Gonza Tacos y Tequila, be prepared to get a birthday hat (and maybe a blue shot of tequila). Assistant Editor Jessica Stringer complemented her tequila with chicken tacos.
