The reception and awards ceremony was held at Broad Street Presbyterian Church. One of the highlights of the evening was a tour conducted by local historian Terry Sherburn. Some facts of interest to Victorian Village residents regarding this beautiful church on East Broad Street near Parsons Avenue:

• The church's original architect in 1887 was Elah Terrell. The Terrells lived across from Goodale Park in what is now the vacant lot south of the "Circus House."
• Isabel Terrell is reputed to be the first female architect in Columbus and designed the Goodale Park gateway at Buttles and Dennison.
• The stones used in both the church and the gateway were from Fish Stone Company. William Fish lived in the big stone house on the northwest corner of Buttles and Dennison. (Home of Jeff Smith and Dwayne Sattler and site of the 2008 Friends of Goodale Park Holiday Gala on December 3.)
• The architect chosen in 1908 to enlarge the church's sanctuary was Frank Packard also the architect chosen by Peter Sells of Sells Brothers Circus to design his magnificent home on the southwest corner of Buttles and Dennison.
