The community will include studios, one, and two-bedroom apartments with stainless- steel appliances, quartz coun- ter tops and high-end finish details throughout. The name Crosby Hill pays tribute to the Crosby and Hill Department Store that promi- nently served Wilmington for nearly a century from 1878 to 1960 at 605 Market St. De- scribed by the Every Evening in 1888 as “an indication of the substantial development of the retail trade in Wilmington… [and] an ornament to the lead business center of the city,” BPG hopes this new develop - ment will be just as influential for the City as the first Crosby Hill building. While the majority of devel -
opment in recent years has been concentrated to Market St., Crosby Hill marks a sig- nificant move westward to widen the core of the Central Business District in Downtown Wilmington. Prior to demoli- tion, the site was originally a standard parking lot. Crosby Hill will relocate the park- ing underground and bring an estimated 400 people to Shipley Street, which impacts the broader strategy to build critical mass and broaden the Downtown. “Wilmington is an inspiring collection of diverse, livable neighborhoods,” said Wilming - ton Mayor Mike Purzycki. “In more recent years, we’ve seen a remarkable growth of hous- ing options in the Downtown District neighborhood largely because of the unprecedented investment of our partners at BPG who continue to demon- strate their deep affection and support for Wilmington.” MAREJ ment, 88-townhome, 17-acre rental property for $32.5 mil- lion from Morgan Proper- ties .
