The Old Greensborough Gateway Center is located at 620 South Elm Street, at the corner of Lee Street, in the heart of "Olde Greensborough." At one time, the building was owned by Greensboro's blue jean giant, Blue Bell, Inc. Currently, it is a renovated, mixed-use space with offices, storage, shop areas, studios, light manufacturing available for rent (here).
The façade was renovated, 2000-2004, by Jo Ramsay Leimenstoll. Professor Leimenstoll is Director of Graduate Studies for the Interior Architecture Program at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. In 1982, the Olde Greensborough district was placed on the National Register. We would like to learn moare about the history and lore of this building. Today, our "O" is for old, as in Old Greensborough.
Hopefully, some really big businesses get their start here.
