WBFF Fox 45 :: Downtown church property sold to become parking lot

Part of the First Baptist Nashville church will be sold to make room for Marriot parking.  That decision came last night after the congregation had an offer for the property at the corner of 8th Avenue South and Demonbreun.  The location is currently home to The Next Door, a facility for women in crisis, and the Christian Women's Job Center.  Both are a part of the ministry of First Baptist.  Church leaders say by selling the building they will be able to secure funds to accelerate and improve both ministries in another location downtown.  The offer came from Giarantana, Nashville LLC.
