Parking is an issue in Wilmington!

Last month, Wilmington’s Young Professionals task force identified parking as one of the top issues in Wilmington’s central business district.
Parking is the foundation of a thriving live, work, play environment and an essential part of the success of any city. Here are just a couple of ways convenient parking affects urban areas:
• Retail success, ie attracting major retailers
• Restaurant activity
• More residents
• Potential employers looking to locate downtown
• Tourism
With that in mind, we want YOUR opinion! Do you think a large public parking garage with reasonable rates (and special rates for events) would be beneficial if built near upper market street in the Grand Opera House vicinity? Let us know by signing the petition below!
