Senior Minister Howard Conn preaches during a Sunday service in the sanctuary of Plymouth Congregational Church, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The fourth Plymouth Congregational Church building is located on Groveland Avenue between Nicollet and LaSalle Avenues in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The decision to follow its membership and move further south on Nicollet Avenue was inevitable but controversial. The building committee, led by Joseph Kingman, selected the Boston architectural firm Shepley, Rutan, and Coolidge. The style is English Rural Gothic inspired by the Congregational Church of Newton Centre, Massachusetts. The exterior is constructed of seam-faced granite from a quarry in St. Cloud, Minnesota. The interior features wooden trusses and oak paneling.
