Historical Note

The Arlington Heights Baptist Church was located on the north side of the 3700 block of Camp Bowie Blvd, Fort Worth, Texas. Established in 1912, the church went through several name and location changes until finding a permanent name and location around the 1930s. The church was eventually demolished in the late 1990s.
