[edit] History

In 1826, the Presbyterians of Ann Arbor founded the "Presbyterian Society," the first church organization in the city. A year later, the First Presbyterian Church boasted 35 members and was planning its first building project: a small frame building at Huron Street at Division Street. The congregation built three structures on that site before selling the land in the 1936 to move to its current location at 1432 Washtenaw Ave.

In this 1870 view west on Huron Street, steeples had yet to be added to the First Presbyterian church at Division Street. In 1936 the church was demolished to make way for the Ann Arbor News Building.
