WILMINGTON– At a press event this morning, The Wilmington International Airport announced that two companies, CIL Capital, LLC and Edgewater Ventures, have each selected the ILM Business Park as the location of their strategic business investment and development. The ILM Business Park, which encompasses 140 acres on airport property, has foreign trade zone status, access to Customs, close proximity to major highways, rail, Port, and an airfield, and is minutes to downtown Wilmington.


“Given the high-profile location of the buildings at the Wilmington International Airport, our plan is to design the facilities to be state-of-the-art in both form and function,” stated Chris Norvell, lead industrial development partner with Edgewater Ventures. “The location demands that these facilities be constructed to stand the test of time, and we want the buildings to be on par with the highest-end industrial facilities in the nation, such that the entire community can be proud of them.”

Tim Skender, principal at Edgewater, said the acquisition was a good opportunity in a submarket that is thriving. "We’re big believers in lifestyle office or neighborhood office," he said. "1800 Central is well-located, in a dynamic, growing (submarket) where the neighborhood is the amenity for the people who office there. There’s a lot of momentum in Plaza, broadly speaking."
