The main church building for the Troy First United Methodist Church was completed in 1904 when the congregation was part of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. That means it was a settled landmark when the finial was used by the Coast and Geodetic Survey in 1943. The church is located at 213 North Three Notch Street, at the intersection with East Walnut Street, in Troy, Alabama.
