### 8-Story High Point Office Building Converting to Apartments
**Echelon Resources Inc.** and LBD Investments have acquired Showplace West/One Plaza Center with plans to redevelop the property into market-rate apartments and approximately 9,000 square feet of retail space.
Originally completed in 1971, the eight-story, 135,000-square-foot concrete office building, located at 101 S. Main St., was donated to Downtown High Point by International Market Centers in 2019. It had previously been acquired in 2011 for around $1.49 million. Recently, the building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places, further highlighting its significance.
Echelon Resources specializes in the redevelopment of historic buildings and has repurposed various former factories, mills, warehouses, schools, and residential structures. LBD Investments, meanwhile, focuses on urban and suburban infill mixed-use developments and historic redevelopment projects across the Southeast.
This transformation aims to bring new residential and commercial opportunities to Downtown High Point, contributing to the area’s revitalization.
