Economic Development Sub-Committee Meeting
We are pleased to invite you to a focused exploratory session to discuss the possibility of launching a new community-driven culinary and arts event: Taste of the West Side 2026. This is an idea that bubbled up from our previous sub-committee meeting.
This meeting will bring the Sub-Committee together to assess interest, explore potential benefits for small businesses and neighborhood corridors, and determine whether this concept aligns with our shared economic development goals for the West Side.
Your experience, insights, and collective decision-making are essential as we evaluate whether to move forward with this hyper-local event.
We would be glad to have your participation at this important discussion.
We'll be meeting at 1512 W 4th St, Wilmington, on December 11 from 4:30-6 pm. Entrance is in the rear of the building. Refreshments will be served.
Call Alethea Smith-Tucker for assistance at (302) 981-0852 or email her at asmithtucker@cornerstonewestcdc.org.

Open Streets - W. 4th Street
Welcome to YOUR streets!
Open Streets Wilmington events take place monthly, closing busy streets to motor vehicles for the afternoon and OPENING them to people. The events transform high traffic streets into safe community spaces for people of all ages and abilities to get outside, connect, exercise, and play. They raise awareness of unsafe streets that aren’t meeting the needs of local residents and help community members reimagine what their streets could look like.
Open Streets Wilmington is a collaborative initiative of Urban Bike Project, West Side Grows Together, Partnership for Delaware Estuary, Jefferson Street Center, and the Open Streets Wilmington steering committee.
