In
February, Historic Wilmington Foundation relocated its
headquarters to the Superintendents Lodge in the
Wilmington National Cemetery. The Cemetery dates back to 1867
and was recognized on the National Register of Historic Places in
1997. The two-story lodge was constructed in 1934 to house the
superintendent. The new location is also surrounded by four National
Register Districts-Carolina Heights, Carolina Place, Westbrook-
Ardmore and the Mansion District. The Foundation looks forward to
the New Year in a new, but historic location. Our contact information
remains the same, but our mailing address has changed:
2011 Market Street, Wilmington, NC 28403
Please come and visit us in our new location!
