It is a member of the Presbyterian Church (USA). The membership stood at 4,265 in 2012.[1]
The church was started in 1849 and the building housing the Downtown Presbyterian Church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. It is now located on 4815 Franklin Pike, Nashville, TN 37220. The head pastor is Dr. Ryan V. Moore and shares a campus with The Oak Hill Day School.
