NCDOT to take Wilmington gas station to make way for road widening
The N.C. Department of Transportation has filed eminent domain cases for properties to make way for improvements along South Front Street including a longstanding gas station. After failing to negotiate with property owners, NCDOT is exercising its eminent domain authority to acquire portions of two properties needed to complete roadway improvements along the busy corridor. The project, a $76.5 million road widening with additional improvements, is expected to begin construction in 2029. In April, the project prompted the relocation of the Greenfield Lake Yacht Club. The bar’s former building at 1756 Carolina Beach Road will be demolished to make way for the improvements. The club’s owners previously told the StarNews that they were aware of the project when the business opened in 2023 and have since relocated to Bourgie Nights on Princess Street.
