It moved to the corner of Person and Hargett Streets in 1881 and was soon designated as The Tabernacle Baptist Church. The City of Raleigh recognized Tabernacle as an historic site in 1979. The move to its new location at 8304 Leesville Road occurred in July 2001. (The church had accepted an offer of purchase for the church property and is now known as the Longview Center.
