Within the year the First Baptist Church (center left), built in 1856 after the designs of Stephen Button, would be demolished and within the decade, the Lutheran Church of the Holy Communion (far left), built 1870-1875 would meet the same fate. The congregations would move further west in the city, pushed out by the commercial growth of the area as represented by the Fidelity Mutual Life Insurance Company building (upper center). Soon to be lost from the city landscape were the Lutheran church designed by Frazer, Furness & Hewitt and the Baptist church, one of the earliest non-industrial landmarks to grace North Broad Street. The prominent Arch Street Methodist Episcopal Church, built 1869-1870 after the designs of Addison Hutton, is visible to the right. It still stands in the 21st century despite several attempts to purchase its highly valued property.
