Joy Temple, 1910, Fitzgerald

I believe this was one of Fitzgerald’s earliest African-American churches, but I haven’t been able to locate the name of the original congregation. The structure has been altered since I made this photograph in 2010, but it remains one of the city’s most architecturally significant vernacular churches. The steeple is unusual.

    There is a church in Waycross facing the RR track off of Memorial Drive. It is similar to the design.
