"The appearance of the district has not changed significantly from that period. It is
still dominated at its center by the Giles County Courthouse, one of the state's
finest Beaux Arts buildings and one which has undergone almost no alterations from its
date of construction. Although the first-story facades of many commercial buildings
within the district have been altered, the majority of upper stories retain a high
degree of their original architectural integrity. Facing the northwest corner of the
square is the First United Methodist Church, which is the largest and best example of
Victorian Gothic architecture in Pulaski and Giles County." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
