Hamilton Square to be remodeled by High Point's spring show

HIGH POINT — Hamilton Square, a 113,000-square-foot showroom building at 101 S. Hamilton St. here, will get an

upgraded lobby and several other renovations as part of a remodeling program set to begin before the end of the year.

One new feature will be loft-style windows on exterior walls that will let in more natural light and improve visual elements of showroom settings.

Several large-screen plasma televisions will be added to the lobby and the building’s food services will be upgraded to include an expanded coffee bar.

Building manager Eddie Forward said work will be completed in time for the spring High Point Market, which begins March 26.

He said the project is timed to coincide with the opening of the new Mill on Centennial building, adjacent to Hamilton Square. Both buildings are owned by High Point developer Wayne McDonald.

“With the success of the exhibitors at Hamilton Square and the quality of the exhibitors interested in the Mill, the logical progression is to tie the two buildings together,” Forward said.

A buyer parking lot linking the buildings will be repaved as part of the project, he said.
