Photograph of a house at 4212 Washington Street in the early 1980s. This residence and the St. James Missionary Baptist Church, at the corner of 43rd and Washington, are the only pre-1940 structures remaining on the block, which was part of the historic Steptoe neighborhood, a pre-Civil War African-American neighborhood in the Westport area. The remaining land was reused for a new fire station and a large parking lot.
