Saint Mary Catholic Church

Saint Mary Catholic Church is a Catholic church building designed in Spanish Baroque and Mediterranean Revival architecture. Rafael Guastavino was the architect of this site, which was started in 1912. Known as the Basilica Shrine of St. Mary, this minor basilica of the Catholic Church is located in Wilmington and belongs to the Diocese of Raleigh. You can pick out the distinct Mediterranean and Spanish Baroque influences in the design of the structure. The building was included as a contributing property in the Wilmington Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.

USS North Carolina Battleship Memorial

Located in Wilmington, the USS North Carolina is a military museum. This vessel is the lead ship of the North Carolina class of fast battleships and carries the hull number BB-55. It was laid down in 1937 and completed in April 1941. You can pick out the scale of this ship, which is recognized as a National Historic Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. I've always found the sight of those massive guns impressive from the air.

Thalian Hall

Thalian Hall es un edificio de teatro en Wilmington que data de 1858. Diseñado en el estilo arquitectónico neoclásico, este edificio de ladrillo revestido de estuco está incluido en el Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos. Consta de dos pisos y cinco tramos. Aunque comenzó hace mucho tiempo, el Thalian Hall Center for the Performing Arts, Inc. ha administrado el sitio desde 1963 para preservar su lugar en la comunidad. Siempre encuentro que el acabado de estuco le da un aspecto muy limpio en contraste con la calle, lo que lo convierte en un gran lugar emblemático al que apuntar durante tu recorrido.

Wilmington First Presbyterian Church

You are not looking at a contemporary chapel, but the Wilmington First Presbyterian Church. This church building is designed in the Gothic Revival style and was created by architect Hobart Upjohn. Located in Wilmington, North Carolina, it is a Presbyterian church. It is notable for being the first Presbyterian congregation in the city of Wilmington, representing the earliest organized presence of this specific denomination within the local community.
