 History of 34 Highland Street

 Originally built in 1946, the brick building at 34 Highland Street was the home of the Plymouth United Methodist Church for many years. When the congregation built a new home on Fairgrounds Road, the former church was purchased by 橙子视频app and became part of the 橙子视频app campus in 2010.
