📰About First Methodist Church
First Methodist Church Marshall is building a new 53,169 sq ft campus at 310 E Houston Street in Marshall, Texas. The project combines 34,570 sq ft of new construction with 18,500 sq ft of renovated interior space, representing a significant expansion for the Harrison County congregation. The estimated cost for this development is $10,000,000, which translates to approximately $188 per square foot.
The design firm of record is DPA | Dwight Patterson Architects, PLLC, and the registered accessibility specialist is Ernest G Taylor. This project is privately funded on private land for private use. TDLR completed plan review in June 2026, and construction is scheduled to finish in November 2027, with work starting August 2026. The TDLR status is listed as Review Complete.
Project Scale and Local Context
This construction project is substantially larger than typical new construction filings in Harrison County. Among 138 registered new construction filings in the county, the median estimated cost is $883,150 and the median size is 7,140 sq ft. At $10,000,000 and 53,169 sq ft, this project exceeds those medians significantly. The scheduled build window of 457 days is also longer than the county median of 212 days for similar projects.
First United Methodist Church has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $9,085,096, including locations in Georgetown, Portland, Henrietta, and Plano. This Marshall project is the largest single filing in that group. Census estimates for ZIP 75670 indicate a population of about 18,549 and a median household income of $39,748.
Local coverage reported that members of First Methodist Church Marshall gathered to view updated blueprints for their 163-year-old church. A Facebook post by globalmethodistchurch mentioned a prayer service at Summit Methodist Church following a fire at the previous location. These third-party mentions provide context for the community's involvement in the rebuilding process, though the TDLR record confirms the current construction status and scope.
