This postcard honors the original Cumberland Presbyterian Center on Union Avenue in Memphis.

Cumberland Presbyterian Center refers to the denominational headquarters of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. The original "Center" was located at 1978 Union Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee, from 1951 to 2008. Funded through a denomination wide campaign in the late-1940s, the original Center building was an impressive and architecturally interesting neo-gothic structure. The Cumberland Presbyterian Denomination's seminary, Memphis Theological Seminary, was located less than a mile away. The construction of the Center, and the consolidation of board and agency offices in Memphis, marked the end of a long period of recovery for the Cumberland Presbyterian denomination after the ravages of the partial union with the Presbyterian Church (USA) in 1906.

Chick-fil-A purchased the original Memphis Cumberland Presbyterian Center property with the intention of developing a restaurant on the site. However, a general outcry from local media, neighborhood residents, and Memphis area historic preservationists forced the restaurant chain to agree to preserve at least a portion of the historic building. By mid-May 2009, the structure had been demolished, with the exception of the south wall along Union Avenue and a portion of the west wall along Rembert Street.
