Originally constructed by several local Prince Hall Masonic lodges, the building had retail shops on the ground floor, and lodge meeting rooms on the upper floors. In 1975 the Masons moved to new premises, and the building became purely commercial in nature.[2] It was still standing in 2002 when nominated for the National Register of Historic Places, but has subsequently been torn down.
