A POTSDAMNED MESS FROM MASSENA TO MONTREAL
Ogdensburg Parkway Super Store will absorb Potsdam auto dealership

FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 2012
The
St. Lawrence County-based Parkway conglomerate of automotive and
recreational vehicle dealerships and convenience stores will move its
Ford dealership from Potsdam to Ogdensburg this fall.
Parkway
Ford Inc., 157 Market St., Potsdam, will relocate to Parkway Super
Store, 9890 Route 37, Ogdensburg, in about two months, said Parkway
co-owner Wade C. Wood.
Mr. Wood said Thursday that the relocation is by orders from Ford Motor Co. More space is needed for sales and service and the Potsdam facility, which Parkway leases, doesn’t have it.
“There’s just no room for expansion over there,” he said.
The
Super Store, which sells Polaris-brand recreational vehicles and
accessories as well as trailers and campers, has room to spare. There is
a 15,000-square-foot building that houses offices, a showroom and a
service area with accommodations for between seven and 10 vehicle repair
bays.
An adjacent building has room for six bays.
“Obviously, we’ll be better able to serve our customers,” Mr. Wood said.
The
parking lot will have enough room for trailers and campers, as well as
the Ford fleet of cars, trucks and sport utility vehicles.
“There’ll probably be 40 new cars and 40 used cars to start with,” Mr. Wood said.
The relocation won’t cost the Potsdam
dealership any jobs. Mr. Wood said its 12 employees will work in
Ogdensburg alongside the nine employees there. Additional hiring is
possible.
Parkway’s
other businesses are: Parkway Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep, Russell Road,
Canton; Parkway Country Store, River Road, Lisbon; Parkway Express
convenience store/gas stations on Route 37 in Morristown and Route 56 in
Norfolk; and another Parkway Express convenience store/gas station in
Ogdensburg at Route 37 and Outer Champlain Street.
If
anyone knows more about the coming flood called "The LOO at The SOO"
than does the Ford Foundation I would like to know who that would be.
Only the insurance industry (aka "god") knows more about the theory of
probabilities than does Ford. After all, Ford is the narrowing (fjord)
at Detroit, Michigan, where the flow should back up to Lake St. Clair
and cross overland on the Bruce Peninsula to re-enter Lake Erie near
Buffalo before going on to Niagara Falls, Lake Ontario, Fort Drum,
Watertown, and Canton, before reaching Potsdam.
