This courthouse is a beautiful example of government interaction with the people "back in the day."…read more The Courthouse Square was once the center of community. It portrays a time when government was more accessible to the people, and people were more a part of government decisions. I love seeing these old courthouses. Many of them have lost their surroundings, but this one still has buildings around it. It makes for a living downtown area, heartening back to yesteryear. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

The library is full of tall windows that allow natural bright light in. It also has plenty of big tables with chairs, however I would definitely recommend going earlier in the morning on weekends if you want a guaranteed table as they fill up pretty quickly. However they also have lots of couches with side tables that I sometimes use as a desk when tables aren't available (sometimes I prefer that since I am a comfy studier). At the entrance, they have a small coffee shop that I have yet to try. On the sides, they have a few conference/group rooms (which tend to be booked anytime I go) and downstairs, they have additional tables. They also have ample parking near the upper and lower entrances.

A drizzly Saturday turned out to be the perfect time to wander around the historic Guilford County…read moreCourthouse in Greensboro because I had the whole place to myself. I was able to walk the grounds, read every monument, and ever once feel rushed. Plus parking was super easy which is always a pleasant surprise in a downtown. The courthouse itself was built in 1918 and is a Neoclassical Revival landmark designed by architect Harry Barton, who left his fingerprints all over twentieth century Greensboro with a style that leaned into symmetry, stone and that confident civic presence counties loved to project in that era. Guilford County goes back much farther than the building, formed in 1771 from parts of Rowan and Orange Counties and named for Francis North, the Earl of Guilford, father of British Prime Minister Lord North. The county seat has not always been Greensboro, but it has been since 1808 when the legislature moved it to a more central location that made sense for a growing county. Greensboro itself carries the name of Nathanael Greene, the American general whose leadership at the Battle of Guilford Courthouse helped shift momentum in the Southern campaign of the Revolutionary War. Walking the grounds in the drizzle gave everything a calm, almost reflective feel, and the monuments scattered around the property tell a surprisingly rich story if you take the time to read them. By the time I finished circling the building, the mist had settled in just enough to make the courthouse look even more dramatic against he gray sky, the kind of scene that reminds you how much history is turned into these old county seats.

First time getting called for jury duty, the experience was fine, nothing I hope I get called for…read moreagain. You had to report to the courthouse by 8:15. Instructions are to park in their designated parking deck is several blocks away, fortunately weather was decent for my visit, but on a rainy, cold day it's going to be a long walk. I reported to the entrance as instructed to be redirected to the other side of the building to a long security line. Once through, we just sat in a room waiting to be called, which we never were. After several hours we were released for the day. No excitement, which was fine by me, just a long morning of sitting in uncomfortable seating waiting. They could definitely invest in some more comfortable seating in my opinion

LabCorp, a company with awful quality and customer service, has their headquarters here.
