Located at Lafayette Avenue between Arlington Avenue and Mount Street, Lafayette Square is an anchor of Baltimore\u2019s African American religious life, hosting St. James Episcopal Church, one of the city\u2019s three black congregations dating its origins before the 1830s, St. John\u2019s AME Church, Metropolitan Methodist Church, and Star of Bethlehem Spiritual Temple.\u00a0 Two of the oldest African American Christian congregations in the United States, Bethel African Methodist Episcopal and Sharp Street United Memorial are only four blocks away.\u00a0 Billie Holiday herself lived on Argyle Avenue, just off of Lafayette, and the fountainhead of the City\u2019s jazz heritage was at the Royal Theater (1922-1971), located at Pennsylvania and Lafayette Avenue.<\/p>\n<div
