The First Presbyterian Church is a historic church at 300 E. Main in El Dorado, Arkansas. The single-story brick building was constructed in 1926 for a congregation which was organized in 1846. The Collegiate Gothic building was built during El Dorado's 1920s boom occasioned by the discovery of oil, and its ensuing rapid growth. It was designed by the architectural firm R. H. Hunt and Associates. [2]
