Cumberland Presbyterian Church (Fort Street Presbyterian Church) An architectural landmark in San Marcos, this church building exhibits Classic elements of the Gothic Revival style in its pointed arch Gothic windows, with Queen Anne influences in the fish scale shingling and octagonal towers. Dating to at least 1901, it originally served the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, known as the Fort Street Presbyterian Church after 1910. In the mid-20th century, the building was home to the First American Lutheran Church and then to the Pentecostal Holiness Church before its rehabilitation for office and residential space in the 1990s.
