Executive Summary

Jason Lee United Methodist Church is a century-old Salem landmark built in 1911–1912 with hand-made concrete blocks crafted by the original congregation, giving the structure a rare and authentic historic character. The building has evolved over time with thoughtful additions, including a 1949 educational wing and later accessibility upgrades such as a ramp and lift, while still retaining its architectural integrity. Its spacious interior, durable construction, and classic design make it highly adaptable for a wide range of modern uses. For nonprofits, community organizations, or mission-driven buyers, the building’s long legacy of service — from food programs to outreach efforts — offers a meaningful foundation to build upon. For developers or creative users, the structure presents a compelling opportunity for adaptive reuse, whether as an event venue, arts space, community center, or innovative mixed-use concept. Its historic presence provides a sense of identity and storytelling that newer buildings simply cannot replicate. Overall, this property combines character, functionality, and versatility, making it a standout opportunity in the Salem market
