WILMINGTON — Nestled in the neighborhood near North 23rd Street, this 1,277 square-foot home at 2202 Plaza Drive has slowly become a microcosm of the last half-century of Wilmington living.

Built in the 1950s, as the city started to expand, it showcases the design features from its construction, like hidden drawers and a compact attic space. In addition, as several tenants have come and gone over the years, many have left behind items that tell the individual stories of their owners. They include a jukebox, bicycles, a Radio Flyer wagon and an advertisement for rolling paper.

Where We Live is a weekly feature looking at the homes and unique places to stay in the Cape Fear Region. Do you have a home, on or off the market, that our readers may be interested in seeing? Let us know at PCD@localvoicemedia.com.
