The First United Methodist Church is a historic Methodist church located at 703 Lee Avenue in Lafayette, Louisiana.
Built in 1924, it is a three-story building in Classical Revival style, with a five-bay front facade and a pedimented portico with four Ionic columns. It was designed by architect J.A. Baylor and built by contractor Knapp & East. According to its NRHP nomination it is one of only three buildings in Lafayette Parish known to have a monumental portico; of those it is "the only one with ornamental fenestration surrounds. It is therefore one of the parish's most pretentious and most high style period buildings." [2] [3]
The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 21, 1984. [1]
