Burlington: LabCorp Headquarters and Alamance Mills
Burlington is the seat of Alamance County, midway between Greensboro and Durham along Interstate 85. The city traces its origins to the North Carolina Railroad's 1855 decision to establish maintenance shops at a site then known as Company Shops. When the rail company closed the facility in 1887, local leaders renamed the town Burlington and pivoted toward textile manufacturing, with Alamance Mills producing the plaid ginghams that gave the region an early national reputation.
Laboratory Corporation of America, commonly known as LabCorp, keeps its corporate headquarters in Burlington and ranks among the largest medical diagnostic testing companies in the world. LabCorp's local footprint includes administrative offices and research facilities, and the company is among the largest private employers in Alamance County. Elon University, in the nearby town of Elon, adds to the area's economic and demographic mix.
The Alamance County Historical Museum occupies the 1790 Stagville Plantation building and focuses on textile and plantation history in the county. Burlington City Park, opened in 1940, features a 1910 Herschell-Spillman carousel that has operated continuously since its installation. The Holly Hill Mall on Huffman Mill Road served as the regional shopping destination for decades before gradual decline paralleled wider patterns in American mall retail.
Alamance Community College provides technical and transfer education in Graham, a few miles south. Cone Health Alamance Regional Medical Center serves as the main hospital for Alamance County. Burlington was the hometown of R.J. Reynolds Jr., and several Reynolds family properties remain in the area.
