World War Memorial Stadium
The Uptown's War Memorial Stadium is a long standing Greensboro landmark. Built in 1926 as a tribute to those service men and women who served in the first World War, the stadium was originally intended to be a football stadium. Later, the Greensboro Patriots and other minor league baseball teams would call War Memorial home.
