Architectural Style: Greek Revival Original Description \(transcribed from book\): The Mosby Memorial Baptist Church was originally the Friends Meeting House. It is an impressive late Greek Revival building with square columned portico. The stairs and central vestibule are later additions but are harmonious with the rest of the building. Original Note \(transcribed from book\): The 00 Block of East Clay Street forms a buffer against commercial intrusion into the residential portions of Jackson Ward. It contains a number of fine houses with very fine cast iron porches, but its lack of street trees damage the desired residential character.
