The Dark Story of American Tobacco Company Factory: Where Lucky Strike Killed Durham

Once the beating heart of America's tobacco empire, the American Tobacco Factory in Durham, North Carolina was more than just a manufacturing site — it was the backbone of an entire city, a corporation that defined how the world smoked for over a century. From the revolutionary Bonsack machine to global dominance with Lucky Strike, American Tobacco shaped American industry, employment, and innovation. But behind the success was a series of calculated decisions, automation strategies, and boardroom choices made in New York that slowly pushed an entire city toward collapse. 12,000 workers. 200 billion cigarettes a year. Gone in less than a decade. This video explores the dark story hidden inside the walls of the American Tobacco Factory — how one of America's most powerful companies rose to unimaginable heights, and how the very machines that symbolized progress became the instruments of Durham's destruction. A story of ambition, automation, and the price of efficiency — told through the ruins of an American industrial icon. #AmericanTobaccoCompany #LuckyStrike #DurhamNorthCarolina
