Welcome to Orange County, North Carolina! Whatever brings you here, we hope that you find this to be a comfortable visit with all the amenities you require accompanied by the helpful good graces of those you meet during your stay. We can all be grateful to the American Disabilities Act (ADA), which since 1990 has, among many other things, eliminated steps, or incorporated ramps into the entrances of all newly built public places, and specified accommodations for older buildings. Yet, some places, especially in historic areas, are still not accessible to those using a wheelchair or walker, pushing a stroller, or who cannot easily negotiate steps. This guide is intended as a companion to the standard Chapel Hill/Orange County Visitors Guide, with added information that will assist anyone with physical limitations requiring extra help to get around, whether because of a disability, recovering from an injury, illness or surgery; those with vision or hearing impairments; or young families needing a diaper changing table and easy access. For the most part, the tips here are for those with ambulatory restrictions, so that your excursions around Orange County will elate, rather than frustrate. Our hope is that use of this guide will help you get out and explore while avoiding surprises that might hinder your enjoyment. 2

This inaugural access guide was prepared by Valarie Schwartz, former writer of the Neighbor’s column for the Chapel Hill News, from which she derived her 2009 book, Remembering Chapel Hill: The 20th Century As We Lived It, published by the History Press; and Ellen Perry, a longtime disability rights activist born with cerebral palsy, who moved to Carrboro while still mobile and taught her adopted town about accessibility as her needs for it increased. Together, they enlightened many people during their research and sincerely hope you will find the people of Orange County as accommodating as they did. © Chapel Hill / Orange County Visitors Bureau 501 West Franklin Street Chapel Hill, NC (USA) 27516 888.968.2060 | 919.245.4320 | Fax: 919.968.2062 info@visitchapelhill.org | www.visitchapelhill.org Material in the Access Guide may not be reproduced without written permission. 3

Chap e l H i l l www.towno f chapelhill.org

Chapel Hill, the lovely “village” that developed around the University of North Carolina as it grew, is the largest town in Orange County, with mostly accessible destinations, though most visitors gravitate downtown. Sidewalks and curb cuts are maintained regularly to keep them as even and smooth as nature allows, and restaurants, coffee shops and the bounty of stores from Henderson Street on the East, to Merritt Mill on the West end of Franklin Street, offer many welcoming places to stop and catch the beat of this university-centric town. Unless it is an exceptionally busy time (graduation or homecoming weekends; or before, during or after a football or basketball game) there is plenty of parking in Chapel Hill, though you may have to pay for it. Every attraction includes recommendations for the most convenient parking lot to use when where to park is not obvious. Maps of town parking lots are on pages 44–47. Enjoy many historical sites with a self-guided car tour on pages 23–27.

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill provides accessibility to most areas of its vast campus for those associated with the schools and UNC Healthcare. However, parking for visitors, including those with a disability parking placard is greatly limited. Especially helpful are maps and information at move.unc.edu. Click “Visitor Parking,” click on “Disability,” scroll down to “Important Links.” Among the links are an “Accessibility Map” showing the location of button door entrances to all buildings on campus, and a “Disability Parking Map.” If you use a wheelchair and have a parking placard, try parking in one of several unlimited handicap campus parking spaces or in a suggested town lot and roll; or take a bus to your destination (most buses accommodate electric wheelchairs). If you will be spending a great deal of time on campus and need accessibility assistance, you may contact the office of the University’s ADA supervisor. Whatever your needs, feel free to call either UNC Parking Services or the UNC Department of Public Safety about the best way to access the venue you plan to visit.

Carrboro

www.townof carrboro.org

Carrboro emerges as one travels west on West Franklin or West Rosemary Streets and opens many offerings within a few short blocks on Main and Weaver Streets. If using a car, you may wish to drive through the area first to get the lay of the land, but the pulse of the town is best felt from street level, and parking in any of the free community parking lots can get you there easily. If you want to venture along the two main blocks, park in the five-story parking deck at 300 East Main Street, next to the Hampton Inn & Suites. From there you can roll or stroll either direction on Main Street, checking out shops and restaurants along the way. Carrboro still has a few shops with steps leading up to front doors, but back or side entrances are usually accessible. Warning: Only park at Carr Mill Mall if you are using the mall. This is a place where you can be towed if you are seen parking and leaving the premises (camera surveillance).

Hillsborough evolved as many historic towns did, at the point of crossroads used by Native Americans and other early travelers across the state. Being historic brings challenges to Hillsboroughâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Churton Street, which has the steepest incline of all the downtown locations, and tricky paving in places. Wheelchair users may wish to avoid the (very bumpy) stone sidewalks alongside the historical courthouse square. In 2015 with accessibility as an impetus, the Town of Hillsborough is making improvements to downtown sidewalks and its largest central parking lot (lot #4, see the Downtown Hillsborough Parking map, p.47). Though unmarked on the map, there is parking for those with disability placards behind businesses on the east side of Churton Street (behind Radius Pizzeria & Pub). If you love historical homes, drive through the downtown residential areas to see lovely mansions, cottages and mill houses. Couple that exploration with the Self-guided Driving Tour (p. 28â&#x20AC;&#x201C;31) for a fun excursion.

The Shops at Daniel Boone feature nearly 30 antique stores

PARKING

RESTROOMS

Getting around in a place you don’t know is an adventure regardless of one’s abilities, but when extra effort is required, wrong moves can spoil your day.

When two people of opposite gender travel together with one using a wheelchair, a good sense of humor is as necessary as preplanning. This guide aims to help you customize your visit according to the best choices for your needs.

In downtown areas, knowing where to park for easiest access is essential to a smooth excursion. A parking key has been developed to guide you to the best area to park, wherever you go. Parking codes for sites are at the bottom of each attraction description, listed before the Restroom code (RR). When the best parking option is an off-site parking lot, either FPL (Free Parking Lot) or PPL (Pay Parking Lot) will be listed with a number symbol (#) followed by the numeral representing that parking lot. See maps for parking in each downtown on pages 44-47. If no number is listed after the code, then parking is on site.

Frequently the greatest limiter of independence in public places is the doors into an establishment or its restrooms. Assuming the doors are wide enough for a wheelchair, most business doors are selfclosing, or “weighted,” making them difficult to open for a person alone in a wheelchair, or a person pushing someone in a manual wheelchair. Some doors have attached door stops, which wheelchair users learn to look for. The key was written based on the highest level of ability of a person using an electric wheelchair, one who typically needs no assistance getting to and from their chair, washing their hands, and opening the door to enter and exit — unless there are obstacles, like a heavy door, or too little space.

These assessments were based on an electric wheelchair 27 inches wide.

the opposite sex. The partner can open the door and then wait outside.

Even within ADA guidelines, restrooms vary widely. Some “accessible” stalls allow a wheelchair in, but not always with enough space to close the door; or without room for an unaccompanied person to get the chair inside and reach around to lock the door.

In some, the light switch, soap or towel dispenser cannot be reached by a person in a wheelchair. In all of these cases, a person who is highly independent in a wheelchair, will need assistance to use this particular restroom, thus it will be listed as an AWA restroom.

Solitary wheelchair users especially will appreciate the restroom assessments, as AWO means that they will be able to open doors and all else unaccompanied.

When a restroom is not accessible by a wheelchair, the code provided is NAW. A site that is not accessible by a wheelchair will have no restroom assessment provided.

If light switch, soap dispenser and paper towels are within reach and there is room for the stall door to be closed with a wheelchair inside, but the entrance door is heavy, the assessment will be HWD, making this restaurant manageable for a couple of

For young families, some sites have diaper changing tables (DCT) in both restrooms, but most frequently only in the Women’s room. By the way, young moms, breastfeeding in public is allowed in North Carolina.

Remember to ask for anything you need — this is the South where innkeepers want to please and take every request seriously.

SELF-GUIDED DRIVING TOURS Refer to the pull-out maps in the standard Chapel Hill/ Orange County Visitors Guide for road details. If you’re here in a car, these two tours will help you explore what this stretch of North Carolina is all about. The Historic Chapel Hill Tour can be done in half an hour without stops, but you will find prompts for good places to get out and absorb several aspects of Chapel Hill’s unique atmosphere . The Chapel Hill–Hillsborough–Carrboro Tour provides more Chapel Hill history and a lovely drive in the rural and pastoral areas of Orange County, both to and from historic Hillsborough with its many charms; plus an introduction to former mill town grown into hip town, Carrboro.

Historic Chapel Hill Tour 1 100 Block East Franklin Street The village of Chapel Hill started here as the university was created. The first intersection was at Columbia and Franklin Streets, which create the west and north boundaries of campus. The main business district in the 100 block has been bustling since the 1790s.

7 Hooper-Kyser House 504 East Franklin Street Built in 1814 by the grandson of William Hooper, a signer of the Declaration of Independence; former home of Kay Kyser and Georgia Carroll. 8 Horace Williams House 610 East Rosemary Street (see page 12 for details) If interested in a walking/rolling tour, park here and pick up a brochure inside for a two-block audio tour available on your cell phone. 9 Gimghoul Neighborhood and Castle The first neighborhood developed outside of the “village” from 1922-30s, includes a medieval castle, completed in 1927. Drive slowly around the circular driveway at the end of the street (unless posted to keep out), to see the stone castle with its three-story battlemented parapet, the meeting place of a secret society. 10 Old Chapel Hill Cemetery Cross over Country Club Road at Gimghoul Road to drive along the back side of the Old Chapel Hill Cemetery, taking the first left to exit onto South Road. There is parking on both long sides of the cemetery with a paved lane to walk/roll through its center. First recorded burial was a student in 1798. 11 Raleigh Road Raleigh Road is the steepest of four roads which demonstrate the “hill” — the Eastern edge of the Piedmont — where the university was built. Raleigh Road descends east, becoming NC 54 (the first paved road in the state), and leads to Raleigh. 12 Quail Hill Halfway down Raleigh Road, Quail Hill, built in the 1960s, became home of the university chancellor in 1995. Down a long, winding driveway, it may be slightly visible off the south side of the road during winter months.

1 3 North Carolina Botanical Garden 100 Old Mason Farm Road With public offerings since Arbor Day 1966, and an environmentally sustainable and highly accessible education center, this is a recommended place for catching fresh air and natural beauty year-round. 1 4 Carolina Basketball Museum 450 Skipper Bowles Drive Tar Heel basketball fans will love this museum. See p. 10 for special notes on handicap van parking. 1 5 Dean Smith Center 300 Skipper Bowles Drive The first game played in the Dean Smith Center was on January 18, 1986, between the #1 UNC team and #3 Duke. Both teams entered unbeaten until UNC christened the 300,000 square-foot structure with a 95-92 victory for their beloved coach. If the doors are open, you might catch a Tar Heel practice or find summer camp attendees shooting it out. 16 UNC Hospitals 101 Manning Drive Opened as NC Memorial Hospital in September 1952, five hospitals on the site now serve all 100 counties of North Carolina. 1 7 The Carolina Inn 211 PIttsboro Street Built on the western boundary of the university in 1924 by John Sprunt Hill (class of 1889) on the site of the original â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chapel on the Hill,â&#x20AC;? for which the town was named. The address is PIttsboro Street, but it can also be seen on South Columbia Street nearing Cameron Street.

C hap e l H i l l /Hillsborough / Carrboro Self-Guided Tour This approximately 30-mile tour takes a drive through mostly rural residential areas sprinkled with some remaining farms and can be done in as little as an hour if you never leave your vehicle; or take an entire afternoon, depending on how much of it you wish to experience as well as add in. Throw in shopping, walking on the Riverwalk and a meal or two and make a day of it! 1 Horace Williams Airport 1001 Estes Drive Extension Built on 50 acres in 1928, the Chapel Hill Airport became the Horace Williams Airport when it was bought by UNC in 1940 and named for the professor who donated most of the land needed to expand it. The airport is slated to close and become part of Carolina North, a 250-acre planned expansion of the University of North Carolina. 28

2 Chapel Hill High School 1709 High School Road Established in 1916, Chapel Hill High School moved from its location near the Columbia and Franklin Street intersection in 1966, to what was then the country. It remained the only high school in the district until 1996; there are now three high schools and the “country” around it continues to sprout housing. 3 Homestead Road Besides centuries of farming, some of the fields along Homestead Road were once training fields for World War II pilots. In 1950, Andy Griffith and his bride moved to a farmhouse on Homestead Road, walking trails and fishing nearby creeks for two years while writing and performing monologues that would launch his career and lead him to become the beloved TV icon, Andy Taylor, of the “Andy Griffith Show.” 29

4 Won Buddhism Temple 8021 Old NC 86 Always open, the temple is accessible by wheelchair and offers a calming respite. Check wonbuddhismnc.org for meditation and program schedule. You may prefer to go when nothing is scheduled. There is a garden, which is not wheelchair accessible. RR: HWD 5 Daniel Boone Village South Churton Street at Exit 164 on I-85 You never know what you might find at one of the 30-odd shops here, but chances are it will be different from anything else youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find during your visit to the area. 6 Historic Downtown Hillsborough Drive around, stroll up and down, check it out! Find shops, restaurants, the Riverwalk, and delightful historic residential districts in vicinity of the main intersection of Churton and King Streets. 7 Occoneechee Mountain State Natural Area 625 Virginia Cates Road Enjoy a pretty day sitting by a pond with fishing access, or have a picnic nearby. Details on page 21. RR: AWO 8 Maple View Farms Country Store 6900 Rocky Ridge Road, 919.960.5535. Rocking chairs on a wraparound porch overlook lush, rolling fields that support the Holsteins from which the ice cream comes. For over 90 years, these 400 acres have supported farming and dairy operations. The barley and corn crops provide healthy nourishment for approximately 300 cows, which produce two million gallons of milk, plus butter and ice cream, each year. Lick it up â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the cream and the view! RR: AWO 9 Cane Creek Reservoir NC 54, eight miles west of Carrboro Plaza; entrance is next right after Stanford Road. 919.942.5790. The source from which clean, pure water is provided to the towns of Carrboro and Chapel Hill, the reservoir also offers a 540-acre surface of blue, open space for respite from the trees! Picnic on a promontory above, where you can rent a canoe or an electric-powered boat, and get a fishing license, as well as assistance, for those requiring it. Drive down to the dock below, which was especially designed for wheelchair users. There is also a nature trail with 60 identified plants. Open Friday and Saturday only, late March through mid-November. RR: HWD

12 1 0 Honeysuckle Tea House and Gardens 8871 Pickards Meadow Road, entrance on Jo Mac Road. 919.903.9131. When you see the open-sided structure, you’ll understand why it’s only open mid-March through mid-November, but you can’t imagine the many intricacies of this oasis without experiencing it. Many teas served here originated from the surrounding gardens, with much more to come as the great variety of tea and berry bushes mature and bear fruit. A wonderful place for children, gardeners, meditators — and of course, tea drinkers. RR: HWD 11 Hank Anderson III Community Park NC 54, less than a mile west of Carrboro Plaza. This 54-acre recreational area offers time with nature a few moments from downtown Carrboro. A wheelchair negotiable crushed gravel trail surrounded by woods, encircles a pond frequented by waterfowl. There are tennis courts, horseshoe, baseball, basketball and volleyball areas, plus an 18-pin disk golf course and dog park. RR: HWD 12 Carrboro Farmers’ Market 301 West Main Street Sited at Carrboro Town Commons next to Town Hall since 1996, this market has been incorporated since 1977. Seasonal vegetables and fruits, meats, cheeses, breads, jams, relishes, flowers, soaps and craft items — all produced within 50 miles by the vendors who sell them. Saturday market year-round, 9-noon in winter; 7-noon summer hours. Wednesday market April to mid-November, 3:30-6:30pm. 1 3 Carr Mill Mall 200 North Greensboro Street The heart of Carrboro beats from the lawn of Weaver Street Market outside the former hosiery mill built in 1898, that town residents insisted be saved from the wrecking ball in the 1970s. Carr Mill Mall is on the U.S. Register of Historic Places and offers an exciting mix of locally owned shopping choices. 31

R EST A U R A N TS HERE YOU WILL FIND best ways to negotiate a restaurant, whether, among other things, wishing to avoid steps, requiring tables at an appropriate height for wheelchairs, ensuring that the restroom can adequately accommodate someone using a wheelchair or a walker; and best parking options. There are very few food-serving establishments in Orange County that cannot be accessed by electric wheelchair. A manual wheelchair can get places an electric one canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, just as a person using a cane or crutches can navigate places a person using a walker canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. Climbing steps is difficult for many visitors and this will guide you around stairs when possible. If walking is an issue, be aware that most restaurants on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill, on Churton Street in Hillsborough, or on East Main Street in Carrboro will require parking at a meter or in a lot, then walking or rolling to. All parking options are noted in the PARKING KEY. In Hillsborough, parking lots with disability parking spaces can be found behind both sides of Churton Street businesses between King and Tryon; and a large parking deck is behind Weaver Street Market (228 S. Churton St.).
