Orchard Street United Methodist Church
Orchard Street United Methodist Church, Methodist church in Baltimore, Maryland.
The stone church building features Renaissance and Romanesque architectural elements, with a large Gothic window on its northeastern facade and clerestory windows.
Constructed in 1837, the church was founded by Truman Le Pratt, a former slave of Governor John Eager Howard, making it Baltimore's oldest standing African-American structure.
The structure contains an 1890 Niemann pipe organ and served as a center for political and educational conferences within the African American community.
Located at 510-512 Orchard Street in Baltimore, the building now houses offices of the Baltimore Urban League while maintaining its historical preservation status.
Former President Theodore Roosevelt addressed voters from the church pulpit before the 1912 election, warning the community against accepting electoral bribes.
