Christ The King Lutheran Church, located at Trenton Road, purchased this property from the city of Southgate on August 31, 2006. The church's webpage states: "We plan to establish a multifaceted ministry center for the Southgate community and surrounding communities for years to come." As of September 25, 2006, the area has the look of a community center with many buildings on a huge lawn, but no signage or names anywhere to indicate what the area is.

After this large space of land, the rest of Pennsylvania on the Southgate (north) side of the street consists of the Cornerstone / Cornerstone Club sub-division whose houses do not face Pennsylvania. There are two roads leading out of the subdivision onto Pennsylvania: Anderson on the east and Club Drive on the west. In-between Anderson and Club Drive are houses with their backs to Pennsylvania (facing a street in the subdivision called Vail Drive which runs parallel and north of Pennsylvania). After the subdivision, the next road is North Toledo Road (Dix), the South Toldeo overpass, and then Allen Road.
