Tenth Street and Dickinson Avenue’s railroad track offers no apparent evidence of its longstanding connection and importance to East Carolina University. However, it, part of the Atlantic Coastline Railroad, served as a major transportation hub when ECU was East Carolina College. In fact, the presence of this railroad company was a reason for Greenville becoming the site for what began as East Carolina Teacher’s Training School.

A music performance at East Carolina College (now University) almost didn't happen on the evening of February 5, 1958. The Dave Brubeck Quartet integrated the school for the first time that very night when school authorities were pressured to allow the Quartet's one African American musician, Eugene Wright to be on stage.
