Gray Home
Located directly across from Lake Artemesia and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad tracks, the Gray family home was for more than 60 years the site of many gatherings for family and friends. It hosted elementary school students in 1909 when the space in the schoolhouse became inadequate. From 1909 to 1917 a post office and rail stop operated from it as well. Today, Paint Branch Elementary stands on the property.

Lakeland's Hall
With the limited access African Americans had to public spaces until the 1960s, this building on western Navahoe Street was forced to serve a multitude of functions. It was designated “Lakeland’s Hall” because it served as an informal community center as well as a place for public meetings, dances, wedding receptions, and church services. On Saturday, it became a movie theater. The building is shown here circa 1965. This hall replaced an earlier structure that was located in the central section of the community.
