Councilwoman At-Large Latisha Bracy Invites Wilmington Residents to a Community Information Session on Proposed Adams Four Shopping Center Redevelopment
Community members invited to learn about Chicago TREND’s plans to purchase and revitalize the Adams Four Shopping Center, explore opportunities for community investment, and discuss the future of the West Fourth Street commercial corridor.
Wilmington, DE — Wilmington City Councilwoman At-Large Latisha Bracy is inviting residents, business owners, community stakeholders, and prospective investors to attend a community information session on Monday, November 16, 2026, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at DE.CO Food Hall, located at 111 W. 10th Street, Wilmington, DE 19801, to learn about the proposed acquisition and redevelopment of the Adams Four Shopping Center.
The event will be co-hosted by Councilwoman Bracy and Lyneir Richardson, CEO and co-founder of Chicago TREND, an organization planning to purchase and redevelop the shopping center located at 800 W. Fourth Street in Wilmington.
The gathering will provide an opportunity for community members to learn more about the proposed project, engage with its leadership, and explore how revitalization efforts could contribute to neighborhood economic development, commercial investment, and long-term community prosperity.
Event Details:
- Date: Monday, November 16, 2026
- Time: 6 p.m. – 8 p.m.
- Location: DE.CO Food Hall, 111 W. 10th Street, Wilmington, DE 19801

The proposed redevelopment comes as Wilmington continues working to address vacant commercial spaces and improve access to essential neighborhood services. Following the closure of the shopping center’s former grocery store, the property has faced challenges attracting and retaining retail tenants.
According to published reports, Chicago TREND is exploring opportunities to attract a new grocery store to the property, including discussions involving the Pathmark brand. The organization also promotes a community ownership model that allows eligible residents and investors to participate financially in neighborhood commercial redevelopment.
“Revitalizing our neighborhoods means creating opportunities for residents to have a voice in the future of their communities,” said Councilwoman Bracy. “The Adams Four Shopping Center has the potential to once again become a thriving destination for neighborhood shopping, services, and economic opportunity. I encourage residents, business owners, and community stakeholders to join us, learn about the proposed redevelopment, and explore how we can work together to strengthen Wilmington’s future.”
Chicago TREND’s proposed acquisition also includes a Regulation Crowdfunding offering through Silicon Prairie Capital Partners, LLC, providing an opportunity for eligible individuals to learn about potential investment in the property. The acquisition and redevelopment remain proposed, and investment opportunities are subject to the terms and risks outlined in the official offering materials.
Residents interested in learning more about the project and its community investment opportunities are encouraged to attend the November 16 event.
