The History of the Building – University Lodge #408 A.F.& A. M. Skip to content University Lodge #408 A.F.& A. M. To be one, ask one. Menu Home About Become a Mason The History of the Building Saluting University Lodge… Links Calendar Calendar Of Events Education 2024 Officers Lodge Library News Photos Contact Charitable Donation Request The History of the Building The current location for University Lodge #408 was designed by architect D.E. Stewart . Built in 1960, the building is a fine example of Mid-Century Modernism . From the concrete trellises on either side of the front doors; to the two-foot wide entrances to the kitchen and bathrooms; to the square, four-sided lag bolts used to assemble the maple, butcher-block stairs, the design was meant to be simple and to integrate with the building’s natural surroundings. In fact, right before construction began, the architect adjusted where the lodge sat on the two-acre plot to better align with the new Franklin Street. The glass walls in front let in plenty of natural light, reminding masons to look toward the Supreme Light. Brothers ascend the open staircase, literally toward that light, setting our minds on higher purposes before we even reach the lodge room. Everything about the building was designed to serve as a Masonic lodge. There is a room set aside specifically for Eastern Star. There are picture rails running the length of the west wall in the fellowship hall and the north wall in the lodge room.
