Day 2: Remembering Local History during Black History Month Lloyd Presbyterian Church is a historic African American church located at 748 Chestnut Street in Winston-Salem. Originally constructed between 1890 and 1907 by its congregation, it is the second oldest African American church in Forsyth County, where worship still occurs in an original location and structure. Lloy…d Presbyterian Church is the only example of Carpenter Gothic architecture in Forsyth County and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998. The Depot Street Renaissance mural by Leo Rucker represents the contributions of just a few of the many individuals, businesses and institutions that made the neighborhood that is now the Innovation Quarter a prestigious community and a thriving hub of Black enterprise.
