Our Projects
THE WALNUT STREET PROJECT
The Walnut Place is an eight-unit townhome community located on the 1400 block of Walnut Street In Wilmington, Delaware.
THE 30 STREET PROJECT
Thursday, December 8, 2016, INCB received Wilmington City Council approval to acquire 400-402 W. 30th Street from City’s property inventory. Along with the agreement of sale to purchase 404-406 W. 30th St. from the Wilmington Housing Partnership, INCB plans to redevelop these long-term vacant units for ownership.
“Over the past year, INCB has moved to expand its reach to other areas of Wilmington north of the Brandywine River. This is our first project in the 9th ward and INCB is excited about the potential impact of restoring these vacant units.”
Lacy’s Project
Central Baptist Community Development Corporation has purchased, rehabilitated and redeveloped, a vacant commercial and residential mixed-use property on the Eastside through our recently expanded housing division, Inter-Neighborhood Community Builders LLC. The CDC rehabilitated the entire structure and rent out, one 2-bedroom and one, 3-bedroom affordable unit to households at or below 50% of the Area Median Income. The two apartments will provide quality housing for residents, help support the project and develop lasting capacity-building in housing and commercial development for the CBCDC. The Wilmington Housing Authority will provide ‘project-based vouchers’ for thee units to help ensure affordability since all units are aimed at households at or below 50% AMI.
The commercially zoned ground floor which has nearly 1300 sq. ft. of space is the new home for popular restaurant, Jerry Deen’s, which will be WiFi-equipped and provide a space for good food and community. The plan is for the venture to bring employment opportunities for community residents and hopefully fuel other commercial interests to invest in the Eastside Community. Jerry Deen officially opened in the building on April 27, 2021.
Lombard St. Project
Inter-neighborhood Community Builderisd is currently renovating the historic Eastside Church on Lombard St.
The church will be renovated and repurposed to house the expanded Eastside Career Development Center, retail ad wholesale produce distribution through Urban Acres Produce, and Central Baptist Community Development Corporation offices. We are also partnering with Culture Restoration Project to run programs for youth and cultural events for the community.
The parking lot next door is to be turned into eight three-story townhomes for community members.
