Dover will soon welcome a pair of new housing developments and more than 60 new homes.
Groundbreaking for the 30-home Crimson Cove subdivision in north Dover was scheduled for Friday afternoon.
Dover Mayor Shane Gunnoe says Lawver Homes has all the necessary approvals to begin construction off East Ohio Avenue past Aspen Drive.
Gunnoe also expects demolition to begin soon on two homes and a business on East Iron Avenue near Union Hospital to make way for the “Iron 24” townhome development.
Gunnoe says those 24 townhomes plus 30 Crimson Cove homes plus other single-family homes under construction will give Dover a “significant number” of new housing units to address what he describes as a statewide housing shortage.
