Wilmington's heavyweight developer - BPG - presented plans on Monday night for a new 22-story apartment building for downtown Wilmington. If built, the 250 foot tower would be the tallest, new building in Wilmington since the construction of the Riverfront's Christina Landing Towers completed nearly two decades ago.

The plan is to redevelop a small parking lot on the corner of Orange and Market streets into a 231-unit complex with a four-story office annex building. The annex building will connect to the neighboring I.M. Pei building at 1105 N. Market Street bought by BPG in 2007.

…

Plans filed with city officials show that the Orange Street project would include a small coffee lounge and coworking space, as well as 2,500 square feet of outdoor amenity space to include a fire pit, grill and dog run.

The project, which includes $70 million in construction costs, continues building on BPG’s housing development in Wilmington, most notably along the city’s main street. Recent projects like Humble Park in the Lower Market community in the south, the 355-unit complex The Standard in the repurposed Nemours building in the north and the Press to the west all add up to a more than $200 million in investments.

…

BPG plans for projects like The Press to be open in the summer of 2025, while Humble Park is slated to be open at the end of 2024. Recently, the company celebrated placing the final beam on the six-story Humble Park.

Still a parking lot for now, but we should be getting closer to lot closure / digging.
