If online sources are correct, 316 South Eugene Street was built in 1963. It is hard to believe that 62 years ago, it was still possible to build a single story structure in downtown Greensboro. The Brown Law Building is the law office of Attorney Kent Brown and his firm. They specialize in traffic, criminal, and expungement cases. This location is so convenient to the Greensboro court house, the federal building, the police station, jail, and the municipal building. 316 South Eugene is only 1,376 square feet and on a .14 acre lot. The building last sold in 2012 for $179,200.*
We wish we knew the original purpose of the building and what each of the four owners have used it for. We wonder is the brick was locally sourced. Old Carolina Brick Company is still going strong in Salisbury, NC. If you are looking for something to do today, head downtown and find a building or two that intrigue you. It is amazing what you can learn from a simple search. As for us, we might put it on our list to head to Salisbury and see just what buildings in Greensboro have used bricks from their company.
Happy Saturday!
