About this map

The Northeast Cape Fear River meanders through a landscape of evolving suburban developments and significant infrastructure north of Wilmington. This 2013 survey documents the established residential patterns of Castle Hayne, Wrightsboro, and Skippers Corner, illustrating how these communities are integrated with the natural hydrology of the coastal plain. The presence of Wilmington International Airport and the Cape Fear Marina underscores the area's importance as a transportation and recreation hub.

Tracing the waterways reveals numerous tributaries such as Prince George Cr and Smith Cr, which define the boundaries of neighborhoods like Love Grove and Council Heights. Smaller residential pockets, including Wrightsboro Acres and Seitter Acres, show the dense network of local roads that have filled in the spaces between the river and the major thoroughfares. The map provides a clear record of the intersection between industrial sites, like the area served by the Industrial Area Bond railroad, and the expanding residential footprint of New Hanover County.
