About

Edgehill

Edgehill, located between Downtown Dover and the Delaware State University campus, is a residential and civic Dover neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and a close-to-the-action setting. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Loockerman Street and State Street corridor, where coffee counters, small galleries, and courthouse-day foot traffic set the pace. Architectural cues lean toward mid-century ranches and tidy brick colonials, with mature shade trees softening wide lawns. Legislative Square and The Green frame the area with formal lawns and seasonal events. The Biggs Museum of American Art and the Schwartz Center for the Arts anchor culture nearby, while Spence’s Bazaar adds a local, weekend-market rhythm.
