The Presbyterian Church - Egyptian Revival
Architect William Strickland, who was also responsible for the Tennessee State Capitol, designed the Downtown Presbyterian Church completed in 1851. Located in the center of the city’s commercial, business, and governmental area, the imposing brick facade of the church is highlighted by the Egyptian Revival columns and battered twin towers. The interior, completed in the 1880s, is one of the finest examples of Egyptian Revival architecture in the country.
