Шаблон:Infobox NRHP Friendship Baptist Church is a Baptist church located in the Southwest Waterfront neighborhood of Washington, D.C. It was originally known as Virginia Avenue Baptist Church.[1] Organized in 1875,[1] the church is one of Washington, D.C.'s oldest African American congregations.

Former building

The former church building, located at 734 First Street SW, was built by James A. Boyce in 1886.[2] Friendship Baptist Church moved from that building in 1965 and it was subsequently occupied by Miracle Temple of Faith in about 1974. Later it was occupied by Redeemed Temple of Jesus Christ (during 1982–2001).[3]Шаблон:Rp It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[2]

The First Street church building is now occupied by the Blind Whino Arts Club,[4] and was repainted with a full wrap-around mural.

The building has a central gable facade with two corner towers. It is described as having "a vernacular interpretation of the Romanesque Revival style with some Gothic Revival details (namely lancet arch windows)."[3]
