Masonic Hall, New York City

As promised, here are my other photos from the Grand Lodge of New York at 71 W 23rd Street in New York City. (pseudo-anonymity be damned!)

Fantastic images! Thanks for the look. I will be a regular subscriber now... You should enroll on King Solomon's Lodge blog roll so that we can all see when you post something new.

Wow, this is a great post. The west coast is so lacking in older architecture. The pics came out really good too!

Thanks for the suggestion, wayfaring man - I had been holding off on adding this blog to King Solomon's Lodge until I'm actually a Mason, but I just went ahead and threw my hat in the ring anyway. :)

Greg, I lived in Sherman Oaks for six years, so I know where you're coming from! (And yet the whole time I lived in the Valley, I never once noticed Hollywood Lodge while driving along Ventura boulevard!)

There are pockets of old stuff if you know where to look - I wonder what the oldest lodge building still in use in SoCal is.

Thanks for the nice comments!
