Nassau School Public Workshop
The Delaware Department of Transportation held a public workshop on February 24, 2020 to seek input on the recently purchased Nassau School property on US 9 (Lewes Georgetown Hwy) in the Belltown community of Lewes. The purpose of the workshop was to answer any questions about potential impacts, discuss recent maintenance efforts, and obtain comments from the community about the building's future. The Nassau School is individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).
Below you will find the display boards presented at the workshop and a summary of public comments received during the workshop and the comment period (closed March 24, 2020). DelDOT is taking all comments under consideration and will continue working with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) to formulate a plan for future management, ownership, and use of the Nassau School. DelDOT is committed to the long-term preservation of the school and will continue to provide updates as information becomes available. Questions may be sent electronically to dotpublic@delaware.gov or by mail to: DelDOT Community Relations, P.O. Box 778, Dover, DE 19903.
