All this suggests the building was converted into housing. At the door farthest away stand two African American women, one holding a large washtub. A utility pole with wires and an old streetlight is in the foreground. On the back of the photograph is written: "[Located] on Market St., the second church built in Grand Rapids. Williams St. S.W." Dated "1929."
