About the Area
Riverfront Wilmington is one of the most exciting redevelopment stories in the nation. Located halfway between New York City and Washington D.C., Wilmington is an up-and-coming cosmopolitan city that is attracting major employers, restaurant, entrepreneurial ventures and exciting residential developments. A significant part of this success story is the Christina Riverfront, which has been transformed into a thriving destination enjoyed by people of all ages. Riverfront Wilmington combines its rich history with a host of new attractions that bring great food, entertainment, and shopping to our city.
Named after former Governor Jack A. Markell, the 5.5 mile Jack A. Markell Trail “JAM” trail connects the Wilmington Riverfront with New Castle Battery Park, in the City of New Castle. The $26 million trail completed in September 2018 converted an abandoned freight rail line to a shared-use pedestrian and bicycle path consisting of an off-road elevated boardwalk and paved pathways, the Wilmington Riverwalk, and one on-road section through Historic New Castle.
