A New Community-RiverLights, Wilmington NC

In 2008 Newland Communities bought 1,400 acres of land along the Cape Fear River. They began building a new neighborhood - RiverLights, Wilmington NC.

The speed limit on the new River Road was reduced to 45 mph. Now it has traffic circles to slow drivers at both entrances of the development.Development
Today, RiverLights is fast tracking development. The Marina Village and the new restaurant, Smoke on the Water are open to the public under rave reviews.
