Phillips-Thompson Building, 200-206 East Fourth St Wilmington, New Castle County, DE
Listed in the National Register of Historic Places on April 16, 1980, the Phillips-Thompson Building is an excellent example of late nineteenth-century urban commercial architecture. Built in 1886 and only superficially modified since 1891, the Phillips-Thompson Building has always housed a variety of tenants ranging from street level commission merchants to upper story ranters and meeting halls. Erected at the hub of the late nineteenth-century market district which ran along East Fourth Street between King and Walnut Streets, the Phillips-Thompson Building is the last standing structure in the area which describes that period of Wilmington`s commercial history.
