This is a Event Hall with a very "historic" bar (rumor has it that it once belonged to Al Capone)…read more We attended a pre-wedding "Thank you" party that was catered by an outside company. The noise level once everyone arrived and began socializing was more significant than I personally was comfortable with for an event of this nature. Parking can be challenging with a small lot nearby and limited street parking. The building has a first floor area suitable for a seated event with the bar on the second level. Overall, nothing special but it provided an interesting venue for a private party.

We recently had our High Point Central High School Class of 2000 25-year reunion at Congdon Yards…read more Our reunion took place on the third floor of "The Factory" building, inside "The Spinning Room." In short, I thought the space worked out great for the event. The event had less than 100 guests, catering by Pepper Moon Catering of Greensboro, a cash bar, music, an Epson projector and screen for a presentation/slideshow, and speakers with microphone. Take a look at my pictures to get a feel for the event space, vibe, and decor. On a Friday night, parking was free, plentiful, and easy. Congdon Yards consists of two 1920s Adams-Millis hosiery factory buildings in downtown High Point, next to Truist Point (baseball stadium). The property is named after the Congdon family, founders of Old Dominion Freight Line of Thomasville. Congdon Yards isn't the first time these old multistory brick buildings have been repurposed into event spaces and for other uses. In 2010, I attended a wedding at "The Loft at Union Square," which I believe is now "The Loft" at Congdon Yards: https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-loft-at-union-square-high-point The current incarnation of Congdon Yards opened in phases beginning in late 2020. The first building, branded as "Plant Seven," opened in spring 2021. The second building, The Factory, opened on June 12, 2023. Here are photos from the ribbon-cutting ceremony on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CtZSX6cu3WM To tell them apart, The Factory is the all-brick building with the green "Congdon Yards" water tower and "High Point - NC" smokestack outside. The Loft is located on the fourth floor of The Factory. There are a multitude of rooms and event spaces, designed for weddings, parties, business meetings, lectures/presentations, etc. There are also public common areas, a cafe, a restaurant, offices, and "The Generator." The Generator provides access to industrial-grade woodworking machines for niche projects, an obvious nod to High Point, "the furniture capital of the world." The cafe is called Lil's Coffee Bar. It's located at "The Commons" in Plant Seven. It's only open Monday-Friday, 8am-4pm. The restaurant is called Earl's Landing. It's located on the first floor of The Factory. It's fine dining; open Monday-Saturday for dinner only and Sunday for brunch only. In general, Congdon Yards is a nice upgrade to High Point's downtown scene, which continues to evolve thanks to Business High Point-Chamber of Commerce, the HP365 nonprofit, state grants, and private donations and investments. It's well done and similar to a lot of other popular and successful revitalization projects around the country, where "historic" buildings have been restored and adapted for modern mixed use. Like those developments, the Congdon Yards designers did a good job blending contemporary elements into the old factory spaces while preserving their rustic feel.

It is conveniently located just off I-40 and Lewisville-Clemmons Road in the heart of Clemmons. We came here specifically to watch a colleague who is part of the local band, City Lights. It was great to be amongst my colleagues to support the band. The bar area features four taps as well as bottled beer, wine, and at least some hard liquor. I chose the IPA by local brewery, Wiseman Brewing, which was one of the options on tap. It has been my experience that prices in venues which are within a hotel/event center tend to be more expensive because they usually have somewhat of a captive audience. My IPA pints were $9.50 each plus a tip. We did see a few people ordering food and I did track down a menu to post. Overall, the venue was nice, clean and the staff was friendly. The band, City Lights was really, really good and we enjoyed ourselves. However, we do feel the prices were a bit steep.
