The fourth view in this series turns to a Unitarian church in Washington, D.C., a congregation whose building stood among the many houses of worship that filled the city's growing neighborhoods in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Unitarian congregations in the capital were known for their support of civic reform, education, and open debate, and their churches often served as meeting places for lectures and community groups as well as for worship. Photographs like this one were often made to document a building's exterior, showing its masonry, roofline, and street setting as they appeared at the time. Looking closely at the entrance, windows, and surrounding streetscape can reveal how the church fit into the residential and commercial life of its block.
