North Church has changed considerably over the last decade. Elon Law School, established 2006, is located in the Greene Street building that formerly housed the Greensboro Central Library. The library is now on North Church Street- barely visible on the left-hand side of the photo. The Greensboro Children's Museum, on the left, opened in 2010. This area is actually quite busy. However, the above photo captured a recent afternoon, at sunset, when there was a lull in traffic and it was as if we were in big sky country.
The photo reminds us that many people will be traveling this weekend to celebrate Thanksgiving with family and friends. If you are leaving town, please drive carefully. If you are staying in town, please head downtown and explore all that Greensboro has to offer. We are so thankful that you are reading this post. We are hopeful that this little volunteer, not-for-profit, community service will continue to be readily visible as lawmakers discuss changes to the Internet.
To me the buildings on the right, will always be Gate City Chrysler Plymouth Subaru. My family purchased most of their vehicles their thru the years and I purchased my first new car their in 1979. (still have it). I love the way Greensboro has put up some of the old street names, with current street names. I think it would be great if someone would make up signs saying who built the buildings and what companies were in them during what time period.
