“Madison Street UMC has been a landmark structure in Clarksville for generations, the cornerstone of the sanctuary was laid in 1882.”
– Ann Wallace, The Leaf-Chronicle
Madison Street United Methodist Church was destroyed by an F3 tornado that hit downtown Clarksville in 1999. Retaining the 117 year old church’s historic look and feel was a top priority for the congregation. The Parent Company worked with EOA Architects to determine the best and most cost-effective way to rebuild Madison Street UMC, and since the church was only partially destroyed this required tying the new structure in with the old.
