Why Live in Dry Pond-South Side

Dry Pond-South Side in Wilmington is a neighborhood rich in history and evolving character, once known for its lower elevation and the pond that gave it its name. Today, it is recognized for its proximity to the Castle Street and South Front Districts, areas noted for their hipster appeal and vibrant community life. The South Front District features attractions such as Benny’s Big Time Pizzeria, created by Chef Vivian Howard, and True Blue Butcher and Barrel, a unique combination of restaurant, whiskey bar, and butcher shop. Art by Nugget and other galleries add to the neighborhood's eclectic vibe, with murals and street art enhancing its visual appeal. The Castle Arts and Antiques District offers bookshops, cafes, and boutiques. Housing in the area includes early 1900s bungalows, mid-century cottages, and modern townhouses, with sizes ranging from 750 to 1,800 square feet. Myrtle Grove Middle, New Hanover High, and Hoggard High are highly rated schools serving the area. Greenfield Park, a 190-acre green space, provides opportunities for birding, kayaking, and enjoying a 5-mile trail.
