This portion of the central business district is south
of Ross Avenue, east of Akard Street and north of Pacific Avenue. It includes
two of Dallas most historic and architecturally impressive churches.
First Baptist
Church dates back to the 19th century. First Methodist Church, on the
corner of Ross and Harwood, has a special place in Dallas history. At
the time of its completion in 1926, it was the only church that cost more
than a million dollars to construct and had a sanctuary that could seat
more than 1,000 people. |
