NEW HANOVER COUNTY — The New Hanover County Board of Commissioners approved a plan to recreate a block of county-owned land in downtown Wilmington, capping years of back-and-forth between government stakeholders and a private development firm.
The agreement between New Hanover County and Zimmer Development Company will guide the establishment of a new library and museum, likely involving the razing of some current structures.
