First Baptist Church, Protestant church at Broadway and West 79th Street, Manhattan, United States.
The First Baptist Church building stands at the intersection of Broadway and West 79th Street, featuring Hebrew and Greek inscriptions on its exterior walls.
Founded in 1762 by Benjamin Miller and John Gano, the church first held meetings in a Gold Street home before moving to its current location in 1890.
The establishment of the Abyssinian Baptist Church resulted from early nineteenth-century disagreements regarding the treatment of African American congregants at First Baptist Church.
The church holds Sunday services at 10:30 AM, offering both in-person attendance and livestream options for community members seeking religious connection.
The building's angular placement relative to Manhattan's street grid creates enhanced visibility along Broadway, making it noticeable from considerable distances.
