Don’t be surprised if you see an old-timey merchant ship sailing on the Christina River. No, you haven’t been transported back in time – you’re witnessing an evening cruise taking place on the Kalmar Nyckel. The ship was an important part of Downtown Wilmington’s history, as it was the vessel the founding Swedish settlers arrived on in 1638. Aboard the ship, you might be able to catch a glimpse of its resident boat cat.
Living in Downtown Wilmington, you’re surrounded by historic buildings and modern apartments.

The Nomad Bar near Rodney Square offers cool jazz tunes every night of the week.
