In this building housed the Madame C. J. Walker Beauty Shop, School of Cosmetology, that was upstairs and serviced ladies with hosiery, facial supplies, the Coffee Pot (that supplied food service) to the community of Indianapolis and a movie show. The Black community shadowed around this area, including the Indianapolis Recorder Newspaper. You could go to the beauty shop and when you left, just put on your evening gown and attend the jazz sessions. Down on Indiana Avenue, the Sunset Club was the main spot for most entertainers.
