Greensboro is situated among the gently rolling hills of North Carolina`s Piedmont and is situated midway between the state`s Blue Ridge and Great Smoky mountains to the west and the Atlantic beach and Outer Banks to the east. The view of the city from its highest building—the Lincoln Financial tower—reveals that the town is populated with large numbers of green trees, lending perhaps another dimension of significance to its name. The city is at the nexus of several major freeways, with Interstates 40, 85, and the planned I-73 passing through its borders.
