The White Box

The Glebe, and the area south along Bank Street, is a real trendy, upscale neighbourhood. The houses are expensive (a few million dollar homes, believe it or not!), the residents well educated and well-​heeled. Plus, there are Carleton U students living there too, giving the area that urban chic, bohemian feel. So, it makes total sense that a shop like the White Box would flourish here. White Box markets itself as a not-​your-​ordinary shopping experience. They sell home décor items (furniture, drapes, lamps, wall-​hangings, knick-​knacks), bath and body toiletries, fancy baby and pet stuff, cards, gift baskets, etc. And all of it is high-​end. No Walmart cast-​offs here. It really is the kind of place you would shop for that person who has it all — but, only if you are made of cash. Parking is strictly street, but you can just ask your chauffeur to circle the block!
