This is the site of the Woolworth store.
The store was empty by 1996 and being developed as a civil rights center and museum. |

Through those doors walked the Greensboro Four to sit-in at the lunch counter. They gave no warning of what they planned to do, so there are no photographs or news film of the event. |
