Recognizes this as the back of the building that housed my cousin Georgia 'McIntyre's Grill' on the corner of Roxboro and Pickett (later Philmont) Streets across from St. Mark AMEZ where I attended church as a child. There were living quarters upstairs on the second level as well as in a house that was reached by climbing the steps on the left of this picture. My family lived on Pickett Street until urban 'removal' forced us away.
