Construction of the Newark Commons daycare and renovation of the James Morrow historic farmhouse for office space was included in an article published in the April 16th edition of NewarkPostonline.com

The James Morrow House is a historic farmhouse that was built in the late 1860s by James Morrow, an Irish immigrant who owned a store in Wilmington. The locally significant building has unusual architecture that features both a gambrel roof and raised basement. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. (see Wikipedia)

Newark Commons Development
March 2021, construction has started on Newark Commons daycare and the James Morrow Hourse office renovation. The farmhouse was moved to this location in 2008.

In 2008, the house was moved 300 feet to the west to clear space for CarMax development. Landmark Science & Engineering  provided all planning, site design, through construction-phase certified construction review services for the Reybold Group, owner/developer  of the Newark Commons development.
