Description
A
photograph
of
Friendship
Missionary
Baptist
Church
located
at
1703
Jo
Johnston
Avenue
in
Nashville
,
Tennessee
.
After
this
photograph
was
taken
, the
church
acquired
a
new
building
at
2800
Buena
Vista
Pike
.
Both
buildings
are
used
today
. The
church's
previous
building
was
located
on
Division
Street
until
the
early
1950s
when
it
moved
to
Jo
Johnston
Avenue
. The
site
on
Jo
Johnston
Avenue
used
to
belong
to
Jo
Johnston
Avenue
Christian
Church
, a
church
that
served
a
predominately
white
community
. As the
social
climate
began
to
change
, the
neighborhood
became
populated
by
African
Americans
and a
need
for an
African
American
church
arose
.
Today
, the
building
houses
the
Friendship
Community
Outreach
Center
, an
independent
,
non-profit
organization
offering
programs
for the
youth
in the
community
. The
building
has a
stone
foundation
. The
exterior
walls
are
brick
. The
roof
is
comprised
of
asphalt
shingles
. The
windows
are
stained
glass
and
covered
with
plexi-glass
. The
doors
are
plate
glass
.
Some
windows
are
boarded
up
.
