The church building at 2nd & Pearl Street was built by the North Baptist Church, which was organized on November 15, 1859. This building at North 2nd and Pearl Streets was dedicated on February 25, 1865. It was sold to the newly-organized Calvary Presbyterian Church, a split from the old First Presbyterian Church, in the summer of 1895, for $18,000. Calvary Presbyterian Church occupied this site until June of 1924, when the building was acquired for use in the construction of the Delaware River Bridge, later renamed as the Benjamin Franklin Bridge. This building is still in use as a church today. |
