Hagan to visit Nesbitt Court during trip to Wilmington

Senator Kay Hagan visits our area Monday. She will tour and survey the old Nesbitt Court Housing Project in Wilmington, which closed in 2007. It is one of the Shovel Ready projects impacted by the federal stimulus bill. Money will go toward demolishing the current buildings. Demolition paves the way for rebuilding the site.

“Wilmington Housing Authority’s Bo Dean said, “This is something that’s quite frankly been an eyesore for a while that people complain about on a regular basis. We can finally do something with – how wonderful.”

The project, and others like it across the state, will create thousands of jobs. Nesbitt Court is the oldest housing project in North Carolina.
