High Point, North Carolina
Where to live in North Carolina? Twice a year High Point, North Carolina is transformed into an
international city. This year the Stanley Furniture showroom transported visitors to Cuba with its
Havana Crossing design line. The furniture’s architectural elements, photography and artifacts
brought the cultural influences of the island country to U.S. consumers, long fascinated with the
mysterious and exotic location.

2. Architecture in buildings, hotels and other structures served as a muse for the showroom pieces.
Cocktail tables in the lobby of the Havana Riviera Hotel are now seen in a new light in the High
Point collection. The High Dive end table was inspired by a three-tiered diving board at the same
Riviera hotel.
Not only is the new line unique but so is the showroom it is sitting in. The Stanley Furniture
showroom (approximate 60,000 square feet including office space) is one of only a few permanent
spaces located in High Point all year —not just when the High Point Home Furnishing Market rolls
into town twice a year. The international trade show is largest of its kind in the U.S. It is the
hallmark of the more than $5 billion (annually) industry.
“High Point is ground zero in this industry,” said Randy Wells, vice president of creative, Stanley
Furniture Company. “This city has deeper roots in furniture than Detroit and the auto industry.
“We needed a street presence and moved here from IHFC (International Home Furnishings
Center) in 2013. Now, our creative team is just feet away from our showroom and it gives us a
great advantage and ability to do a better job for our customers.”
Considered one of the best places to live in North Carolina, the smallest of the three Triad cities,
High Point has built its reputation on furniture and manufacturing. The number of new business
projects is attributed to the efforts of High Point Economic Development Corporation, and Sandy
Dunbeck, the 2015 North Carolina Economic Developer of the Year.
HAECO Americas will locate its aircraft interiors manufacturing operations and engineering
functions to High Point. The $11.3 million project will include the creation of 147 jobs over five
years. Expert Global Solutions will add more than 800 jobs at its customer engagement service
office in Piedmont Centre industrial park. It is the largest provider of customer service solutions
to the U.S. market – and the third largest globally. The leading school bus manufacturer in North
America, Daimler’s Thomas Built Buses continues to grow in High Point – adding 416 jobs over
two years.
Education is a vital partner in the growth of High Point led by High Point University which many
credit for the town’s economic turnaround. The school has experienced high levels of growth
under President Nido Qubein in the past decade. The school’s $160 million expansion and
renovation plans announced in spring 2016 include a $60 million undergraduate sciences facility.
New buildings and construction projects include establishing the Congdon School of Health
Sciences and the Fred Wilson School of Pharmacy, the only pharmacy school in the Triad.
To learn about High Point’s history a visit to the High Point Museum is time well spent. A trip to
Bernice Bienenstock Furniture Library is on the bucket list for those who are intrigued with the
industry. It is the largest furniture specialty library in the world. Take a photo by the John Coltrane

3. Statue and marker. The bronze statute pays tribute to one of High Point’s most acclaimed citizens,
legendary jazz saxophonist John Coltrane. Each Labor Day, jazz lovers gather for the John
Coltrane International Jazz and Blues Festival.
The city has plenty of green spaces, parks and lakes that get locals outdoors and connected with
nature. The Piedmont Environmental Center provides environmental education, engaging nature
hikes, eco-tours and 11 miles of trails for independent adventure.
In the evening, dining out is a favorite pastime in High Point. At Lulu and Blu, Italian food is served
with a twist. Mussels, pasta and other cuisine of Italy tantalizes guests who enjoy the specialty
martinis and exceptional wine list. On Friday nights end the week at Emerywood Café, a
restaurant and full service catering company offering live music to celebrate TGIF. []
