Office Depot

It looks like Office Depot is interested in opening a shop at Palladium. Developers presented their intentions to city planners earlier today.

This is a short bit running in tomorrow's paper by staff writer Sue Schultz. I was tied up with some police duties:

With the growth of office parks, retail stores and small businesses, an Office Depot in north High Point seems like a natural fit.

Developers for the office-supply store presented plans for a 20,317-square-foot facility to city planners Wednesday.

The store would be located in Palladium at Deep River, a strip mall near the Palladium Theater, near the intersection of Brian Jordan Place and East River Way.

It would be the first big-box office-supply store in the north High Point corridor.

High Point has an Office Depot on Eastchester Drive near Main Street and a Staples on Main Street.

Office Depot officials didn’t return calls Wednesday.

Comments

When I think of Office Depot I think of paper, and when I think of paper I think of paper shortages at the Guilford County Schools.

Any when I think of Guilford County Schools I think of "Lie & Deny, Lie & Deny" and an endless chain of e-mails last fall from Dr. Grief who first claimed there was no paper shortage and then in his "Friday Notes" publically admitted to a shortage of paper.

Just a little oversight by him and his pack of overpaid adminsitrators.

Buck,

I agree that Home Depot makes me think about paper...but I think of toilet paper...

Better stock up, the you-know-what's only getting higher and higher in North High Point.

I welcome any establishment that can tolerate the XXXX for schools here.
