How to park in downtown Greensboro

I started working at a magazine with offices in downtown Greensboro in the spring of 2001, in the building where Center City Park now stands. Parking was not a problem during the day: We had employee spaces behind the building. Downtown was a wasteland after 6 p.m., with just a few bars and clubs centered on the 200 and 300 blocks of South Elm.
By 2004, when Natty Greene’s opened on the corner of Elm and McGee streets and plans for the ballpark were set, downtown had become a destination.
