2014 Map of Wilmington South

About this map

Wilmington and its southern suburbs are defined by the convergence of the Christina River and Brandywine Creek as they flow into the Delaware River. The map illustrates a dense mosaic of residential neighborhoods and industrial corridors, featuring a high concentration of memorial sites such as Silverbrook Cem, Cathedral Cem, and Gracelawn Memorial Park. Transportation remains a central theme, from the historic rail corridor of the B And O Ln at Landenberg Junction to the modern aviation hub of the New Castle Airport. Cultural and educational institutions, including the Delaware Coll of Art and Design and Wilmington Univ, are integrated into the urban fabric. To the south, the landscape shifts toward the riverfront marshes of New Castle Flats and Dutch Neck, where the Delaware Memorial Bridges span the water toward the Delmarva Peninsula.
