One great feature is the NoDa Company Canteen, from the folks that run NoDa Company Store. They will have the official tiki bar, where they’ll serve all kinds of great drinks.
Last year they also offered free walking tours every Friday at 4 p.m. (We’ll update about that for this year when know.)

More about Camp North End
Camp North End is a “new old” place. Ford Motor Company built it in 1924 as manufactured Model T and Model A automobiles there. After that it was used by the U.S. Army as a missile assembly and storage space. It’s got an interesting history.
I had a chance to visit and take some pictures. Read more about it here and look at some pictures.
Now it’s being developed by ATCO for offices, event space, retail, artist studios and public gathering space, all the while preserving the historical space.
