Charlotte-North,
North Carolina
--
3931 Statesville Ave
|

An
early, but typical standardized location, Greensboro-North opened
in about 1961 along U.S. 29 bypass--an excellent location for a
Motor Lodge and Restaurant because the highway had also been designated
as I-85.
Originally
configured with only 42 guest rooms, an addition in the late 1960s
or early 1970s bumped the total to 80. After
the Motor Lodge was closed, the original 42 room section and the
Gate Lodge were demolished. The newer guest wing was prepped for
demolition, but was still standing--gutted--as recently as 2005.
