300 S. Elm St., which occupies a key corner of downtown Greensboro, has remained mostly vacant for much of the time the Gray family has owned it, but significant investment in the block has ratcheted up the pressure for the owners to renovate or sell, as Senior Editor Jordan Green explains in this week’s Triad City Beat cover story.
