It was built in 1893–1894, and is a five bay, rectangular brick building in the Gothic Revival style. The front facade features flanking towers. Also on the property is a contributing house built in 1913 used as an office/administration building. It is a two-story frame house with a hipped roof and wraparound porch. It is one of the oldest standing Methodist churches built in Fayetteville and the second oldest standing church built in the city, next to the First Presbyterian Church in Anne Street. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. History The first church built on the site of the current church was first founded in the 1800 by free black preacher Henry Evans and was first chartered in 1801 as Evans Chapel. The city first served both black and white people, up until the establishment of the Hay Street United Methodist Church, where it then became a predominantly black congregation. After the American Civil War by 1872, the chapel became part of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. In 1893, construction begun to replace the previous structure with the present one. Constructions tasks were carried out by black artisans from the local community. In September 2018, Hurricane Florence struck Fayetteville, leaving the building being severely damaged as a result. It wasn't immediately rebuilt for five years and was reopened in February 2023. Description The church exhibits the Gothic Revival style built on a rectangular floor plan with an east-west orientation. Two towers face the eastern façade and the middle bays are filled with elongated lancet windows above small basement windows. The towers both have double door entrances with lancet windows and pyramidal cap roofs with finials at the top. The sides of the church have four bays, each of them consists of a lancet window and are divided by brick buttresses. The rear has a small frame extension and a rectangular apse which houses the choir and pipe organ. The inside has a basement, a main floor ordered by the narthex, nave, and then the chancel, and a full balcony on all four sides. The interior is faced with beaded boards, making the structure having a dim lighting. The walls were clad with beaded wainscoting and double horizontal polished boards. The ceiling is heavily beamed with a cross-tie intersection at the main bressummer running the length of the church. The ceiling is filled with the beaded boards and are set in a herringbone pattern.

Falcon Tabernacle

The Falcon Tabernacle, also known as the Octagon Tabernacle and the Little Tabernacle, is an historic octagon-shaped Pentecostal Holiness church building in Falcon, North Carolina. Built in 1898, it was designed by Julius A. Culbreth for prayer meetings and constructed from salvaged wood from trees that had been uprooted by a tornado. Culbreth, who was the founder of Falcon, chose the octagon shape because it reminded him of the tents used in revival meetings. In 1900 the building became the home of the Falcon Pentecostal Holiness Church, of which Culbreth was a leader. On January 30, 1911, the building was the site of the formal merger agreement between two Pentecostal denominations, the Pentecostal Holiness Church of North Carolina and the much larger Fire-Baptized Holiness Church. The new denomination was called the Pentecostal Holiness Church and is now the International Pentecostal Holiness Church. In 1952 a new much larger church was built in front of the Little Tabernacle and the congregation's name was changed to the Culbreth Memorial Pentecostal Holiness Church. In 1974 the Little Tabernacle was moved from its original location at 8443 Fayetteville Road to West Street, where it is now located. On October 11, 1983, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. References External links Culbreth Memorial Pentecostal Holiness Church website

Federal Building (Raleigh, North Carolina)

The Federal Building, also known as the Century Post Office, is a historic building located on Fayetteville Street in Raleigh, Wake County, North Carolina, United States. It was the first Federal Government project in the South following the Civil War. Construction of the building began in 1874 and was completed in 1878. The building's Second Empire design was by Alfred B. Mullett whose more famous works included the Old Executive Office Building located near the White House. The Federal Building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971 and is a Raleigh Historic Landmark. After completion of the building, local offices of federal agencies, such as the post office, were located on the first floor. The United States District Court was located on the second floor and at the time was considered the best fitted courtroom in North Carolina. In 1913, the building was doubled in size to accommodate the effects of city growth. The building was renovated and its original materials and most of its detailing were replicated. In 1939, the building was expanded with the same exterior design being applied to the new addition. Federal Government agencies grew rapidly after World War II. Due to this growth, the majority of the offices located in the Federal Building were moved to rented facilities located throughout Raleigh. A new Federal Building was constructed downtown to consolidate the agencies in 1970. The facility also became the new home of the court and post office's administrative facility. In 1978, the original Federal Building was renovated and renamed Century Station to commemorate the 100th anniversary of its opening. Currently, it serves as a post office for downtown Raleigh and as the United States Bankruptcy Court. See also List of Registered Historic Places in North Carolina References
