About
First Baptist Church, a Seattle Landmark, is an impressive example of the English Gothic revival style. It is faced with dark red brick that contrasts with light-colored terra cotta ornament. The composition is dominated by a 160-foot-high tower and copper clad spire. Apart from its architectural character, the building’s commanding elevation at the northeast corner of First Hill and its prominent tower make it an identifiable visual landmark from far away and close-up.
