The Late Gothic Revival building was constructed in 1923[2] and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998. HistoryThe original Bethel Church building was constructed in 1889 as a haven for former slaves and was entirely constructed of wood.[3] Built by the Reverend Jack Yates, the plot was located in Houston's Freedmantown district.[3] The original structure was destroyed in the Great Storm of 1900. Between 1900 and 1920, a second church structure was erected on top of the remains but it too was later destroyed.[2] Twenty three years later, the church was reconstructed for a third and final time.[2] In 1997, the last church service was held in the building after which it was abandoned.[2] On January 24, 2005, a fire destroyed the interior of the church, leaving only the exterior brickwork intact.[3]"The roof, all the interior and even the church's back wall had been destroyed; all that was left were three walls, some concrete supports and the concrete floor."[3] In 2009, the church was sold to the City of Houston. Soon thereafter, the city erected steel supports and a concrete floor to preserve the building.[3] References1. ^{{NRISref|2009a}} {{National Register of Historic Places}}{{Clear}}{{Texas-NRHP-stub}}{{Texas-church-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Bethel Baptist Church|url=http://www.houstonarchitecture.com/Building/2057/Bethel-Baptist-Church.php|website=Houston Architecture|publisher=Houston Architecture Info|accessdate=29 September 2015}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|last1=Gray|first1=Lisa|title=Archeologists make surprising discovery at Bethel church: Ruins of Historic Church transformed into city park|url=http://www.houstonchronicle.com/life/columnists/gray/article/Archeologists-make-surprising-discovery-at-Bethel-5042261.php|website=Houston Chronicle|publisher=The Houston Chronicle|accessdate=29 September 2015}} 7 : Churches in Houston|Baptist churches in Texas|Churches completed in 1923|Churches on the National Register of Historic Places in Texas|Gothic Revival church buildings in Texas|1923 establishments in Texas|National Register of Historic Places in Houston |
