bringing wilmington to life

Wilmington, Delaware, is home to some of the largest financial institutions in the country. When Fortune 500 companies come together for their shareholders' meetings, they often choose the City's Hotel duPont as a gathering point. Revitalization efforts have brought a minor league baseball stadium to Wilmington, as well as a large number of outlet shops, and a riverfront with ambitions of echoing the success of Baltimore's Inner Harbor. But, the sidewalks of the city roll up after the business day is over. Getting some students to live in town is a tremendous move.
