History and architectural features

Built in 1886, this historic church is a two-story brick building, which was designed in a modified Gothic style. It features a three-story square bell tower with large oval windows and brick tracery.

Attached to the church by a one-bay, two-story section is a three-story brick parsonage that was built in 1897.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.

In November 2019, the Tabernacle Baptist parish left the church building and moved to another location. The site was briefly known as Choice Community Christian Church until March 2021 when the CCCC parish also moved to another location.
