The Brandywine Town Center in Wilmington, Delaware, which is home to Target, Christmas Tree Shop, Regal Cinema Movies, and many other restaurants and retail storefronts, will undergo future renovations, demolish a restaurant and other buildings, and expand the area and bring in more businesses.

Acadia Realty Trust, who owns the Brandywine Town Center, filed exploratory plans with New Castle County in January 2023. According to Delaware Live, all of these redevelopment plans are thanks to the feedback of the public.

Some of the notable changes coming to Brandywine Town Center in Wilmington, Delaware are the demolition of Red Robin and the old community building, as well as the reconstruction to introduce seven new buildings surrounding the pond outside of Red Robin currently. The community building will be rebuilt, and it is not disclosed as of now whether Red Robin will be relocating or closing for good in that area.

The central pond in Brandywine Town Center currently attracts families, couples, and solo walkers alike who wish to get some exercise and enjoy the quiet walkways. These paved pathways will also undergo renovation, to make them wider and rerouted to new buildings.

Seven new buildings will be constructed to bring in new restaurants and retail storefronts. They have already gotten potential interest from businesses. Furthermore, the playground which currently sits outside the pond will be torn down and relocated.

The plans are still in the approval process.

What's Happening Near AstraZeneca on Route 202 in Wilmington?

Notice the construction going on near AstraZeneca and the commercial spaces on Route 202 Concord Pike in Wilmington across from Panera Bread and Five Guys? It’s a development project called Avenue North. I’m sure you’ve seen the signs. The first phase of retail stores have been built and can be seen from the major highway. A Brew HaHa! is also located within the Avenue North “soon to be” community.

Avenue North is an 80 acre campus in Northern Delaware, dedicated to homelife, worklife, and playtime all in one community. It will be a walkable, mixed use redevelopment, bringing commercial and residential amenities to the suburban communities of Wilmington, as described on Avenue North’s website.

Everyone who lives in this community will be within walking distance to restaurants and retailers, recreational space, bike paths and walkways, and also, potentially work. Avenue North is located just north of the city of Wilmington and five minutes from I-95.

In June 2017, Delle Donne & Associates acquired the complex where AstraZeneca is located. They then renamed it Avenue North.
