Great article, Jada!

Looking forward to checking a few of these out.

Quick suggestion, might be a good idea to include addresses for numbers 9, 8, 5, 4 and 2 so people can go check them out!

#9 - Mt. Olive Church - 841 Franklin St.
#8 - Mother Midway AME - 1456 Van Buren St.
#5 - Eartha M. White - 613 W. Ashley St.
#4 - Old Brewster Hospital - 915 W. Monroe St.
#2 - Ritz Theater - 829 N. Davis St.
