Anyone have any idea what 4819 Harrisburg was?

In 1966, 4819 Harrisberg was Sterling Laundry and Cleaning. Also on that block were Barton's Tire Service at 4801, Commercial Refrigeration at 4805, Neighborhood Appliance at 4809, Johnny's Used Cars at 4810, and Don't Forget It Lounge at 4814 Harrisburg Blvd. .

This looks like the same building that appears down the street, to the right, on Prairie, in the horse and buggy photo of your previous post of the old Stegeman building.

Stunning. I have to get there possibly this weekend.

There are several of that style around. Another one is on Wayside just south of Polk. They ought to be cleaned up and designated as landmarks, if possible.
