First Baptist Church

Description

First Baptist Church was designed by Harry Weese. Completed in 1965, it is positioned on the brow of a gently sloping knoll. This elevation combined with its peaked non-dimensional bell tower emphasizes the building’s function as a place of worship. The steep roof, which is twice as high as the supporting pink brick walls, is covered with hand-laid slate. Highlight of the interior design is a wall of pierced brick at the front of the chancel.
