The mixed-use project encompasses a 14-story high-rise tower and a 4-story residential building along 8th Street. The complex will feature a mix of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments and duplexes. Set for a Summer 2025 completion, The Press adds modern, high-density housing options to Downtown Wilmington.
The high-rise features post-tension concrete construction with a unitized glass and metal curtain wall for sleek architectural appeal. Meanwhile, the 4-story brick-clad building includes duplexes with sidewalk access and two upper floors of apartment-style flats. Between the structures, a landscaped courtyard will offer a pool, dog run, grill stations, and vibrant resident gathering areas.
