The Press

Designed by Perkins Eastman, The Press is a $90 million, 243-unit luxury residential development located at 801 N Orange Street in the heart of downtown Wilmington. The project features a mix of studio, one, two, and three-bedroom apartments and duplexes across a 1.15-acre site, bringing modern urban living to a historic neighborhood. The development is anchored by a 14-story glass and metal residential tower along Orange Street, complemented by a four-story brick-clad building on 8th Street with two-story duplexes and apartment flats above. Future phases will include a second residential tower on Tatnall Street and townhomes along Girard Street.

Luxury Living & Amenities
The Press combines high-end finishes with thoughtfully designed amenity spaces to create an elevated residential experience. Highlights include:

• Ground floor lobby with concierge as well as co-working spaces and a 24/7 fitness center
• Indoor lounge and social dining space on the fourth floor
• Roof deck on the fourth floor with panoramic views of downtown Wilmington
• Private exterior courtyard with pool, dog run, grill areas, and landscaped social spaces
• Pocket park accessible to the public with seating and green areas
• Porte-cochère adjacent to the lobby for convenient passenger drop-off

Community & Location
Aptly named, The Press pays tribute to the site’s history as the former headquarters of The News Journal, revitalizing a previously underutilized urban space for an expected 350+ residents. Centrally located just two blocks from Market Street, the development offers residents unparalleled access to employment hubs, Wilmington Train Station, Transit Center, and neighborhood attractions. The Press creates a vibrant, connected community where residents can live, work, and thrive in downtown Wilmington.
