First United Methodist Church

1928 Ross Av. - 1926

The congregation of the First United Methodist Church was founded in 1846.  The congregation had three previous homes before Trinity Methodist and First Methodist merged and settled down in their current location.  This building opened on February 7, 1926.  The building was designed by Herbert M. Greene, and R.H. Hunt.  Late English Perpendicular Gothic Revival would best describe the style of the church.  Materials on the church include red brick, terra cotta, and cast stone.  It is directly across the street from the Dallas Arts District and more specifically, the Dallas Museum of Art.
