Looks like another possible highrise...

Developers Offer Plans for Wilmington Property

WILMINGTON -- Two developers Thursday outlined their competing plans for new high-end condominiums in the Midtown-Brandywine neighborhood. McConnell Johnson Real Estate Co. of Wilmington wants to build a 20-story building with 70 units that would sell for at least $350,000 each. Midtown Development of Baltimore wants to build a 10-story building with 46 units that would sell for around $550,000 each. The site for the condos is 1400 N. Washington St., where the Red Clay Consolidated School District's former administration building sits. Christiana Care currently owns and uses the building. Christiana Care bought the property from the city five years ago. The terms of the deal allow Brandywine Gateway Neighbors, a nonprofit housing group, to purchase the property for about $2 million by July 1. McConnell Johnson would offer $2.5 million to Brandywine Gateway Neighbors. Midtown Development would offer $3 million. Several of the residents at the meeting at First Presbyterian Church expressed concerns about the new building causing traffic and parking congestion in their neighborhood.

Will people ever not complain about traffic?

This site is directly across Washington Street from Wilmington Hospital.



Sorry, but I don't have a good shot of the site. The building would be just to the left of the tan building on the left (behind where the clump of trees is). It's a nice site, I've always thought there would be alot of development potential since it overlooks Brandywine Park and the river.
