Lower Louviers and Chicken Alley
Lower Louviers and Chicken Alley, Federal residence in New Castle County, Delaware, United States
Lower Louviers features a two-story to three-story stone dwelling with five bays and stucco exterior located on Black Gates Road near Wilmington.
Built in 1811 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972, the property belonged to members of the Du Pont family.
The property includes Chicken Alley, a collection of 19th-century worker row houses that represent the social structure of industrial Delaware.
The extensive 51-acre property maintains its original architectural elements while incorporating modern additions such as a 1935 kitchen wing and garage.
Three central bays of the main residence project outward from the primary structure, creating a distinct Federal-style architectural pattern.
