A Banach space X has the average distance property if there exists a unique real number r such that for each positive integer n and all x1,…,xn in the unit sphere of X there is some x in the unit sphere of X such that

We show that lp does not have the average distance property if p > 2. This completes the study of the average distance property for lp spaces.
