The only reason CO would move is when they are forced to, because they do not want to pay for the increase in rent that would come with a move. Also, if the airport was going to consolidate to one concourse (which granted they could very easily from a gate space perspective, especially once US stops flying GSO-LGA) they would have to redo the ticket counters to move all airlines close without having to trek across the upper level.
Interesting...I would have found it to be the opposite since the North Concourse was just expanded. However, it does make some sense since there's a lack of jetways up there.

No idea on a historical PC there, but the CO Lite club was based out of the North Concourse, while the US Airways Club is on the South Concourse. There used to be a small Eastern Ionosphere Club in GSO where Gate 20 is currently...not sure if that ever became a PC.
