Answer:

Durham, North Carolina.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tobacco industries developed in North Carolina during 1890, when American Tobacco Company founded by J. B. Duke with collaboration with the other tobacco manufacturers. Durham is considered to be the American tobacco historic district because of its large and several tobacco building and structures built by this company from 1874 to 1950s.
