It doesn't seem like all that long ago that having a Blockbusterstore nearby was seen as a plus. Then came Netflix in 1997, Redbox in 2002 andVideo on Demand shortly thereafter and the corner Blockbuster store began to lose relevance.
Seeing this banner draped across the Blockbuster storefronton Dobbin Roadreminded me just how quickly a hot retail trend can cool off. The first Blockbusterstore opened in 1985 and by 2004 the company had over 9,000 stores and 60,000employees. Six years later the company sought protection of the bankruptcycourt. Today, thecompany now owned by Dish Networks, has approximately 1,000remaining stores. I believe this is the last one in HoCo.
