The North Durham-Duke Park Historic District was listed to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 and included the core of the neighborhoods extending along Mangum Street from Little Five Points north to I-85. The district included the oldest and most architecturally significant homes in the neighborhood at the time, focusing on resources pre-dating the 1930s and centered along Mangum, Roxboro, Trinity, Seeman, and Lynch Streets.
A proposed expansion of the historic district has been submitted to the State Historic Preservation Office for review. The expansion would include approximately 400 resources constructed between 1930 and 1960, illustrating the continued development of the Old North Durham and Duke Park neighborhoods through mid-century. In addition to the Bungalows, Colonial Revival, Minimal Traditional, and Ranch homes, the district expansion would include Duke Park itself with its 1930s bathhouse and picnic shelter.
