Home Depot is an Atlanta, Georgia-based "big box" home and garden retail chain. The company entered the Birmingham market with three stores announced in 1994 and opened in 1995.
When those stores opened, they each took spots near an existing Home Quarters Warehouse. The first to open was near the Galleria 10 theater at the Riverchase Galleria. The second was at Eastwood Festival Center. The Eastwood location had originally been proposed for the site of Lawson Field, but engineering issues caused the deal with the city of Birmingham to fall through. The third location opened on a site near the Flintridge Building in Fairfield, lured by $1 million in infrastructure improvements pledged by then-mayor Larry Langford.
