400 E. 4th St. – First United Presbyterian Church

On Thanksgiving Day of 1875, the First United Presbyterian Church was organized by combining members of the United Brethren, Methodist, Baptist, and United Presbyterian churches. Originally, services were conducted by the Rev. William McCreery in the St. Louis schoolhouse. By 1877, the congregation formed a building committee which oversaw the construction of the first church building in 1878 on the corner of Fourth Street and Lincoln Avenue. In 1906, a new church building was built at Fourth and Jefferson. This structure is listed on local, state, and national historic registers.
