New Pilgrim Baptist Church was a historic church at 903 Sixth Ave South in Birmingham, Alabama. It was built in a contemporary Gothic Revival style and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007. [1] [2] In 1979, the congregation moved two miles west to a new building, located at 708 Goldwire Place Southwest. It continued to use the historic church as a day care center for many years. In 2017, the building was sold to the University of Alabama at Birmingham and razed. In 2021 a historical marker was erected at the site. [3]
