Greensboro
Carolina Piedmont city
Greensboro is a city in north-central North Carolina, the third-largest in the state.
It anchors the Piedmont Triad region alongside Winston-Salem and High Point.
The city figured prominently in civil rights history—the 1960 Woolworth's lunch counter sit-ins began there, sparking similar protests across the South.
I'm driving down to Greensboro for a conference.
