About this venue

Designed in the style of an early twentieth-century Moorish Revival lodge, from its earliest days, people gravitated toward the structure. With a square rooftop penthouse and unique brick and trim features visible from the road, the design made it a downtown standout. Curl up in a cozy chair in the library. Order a cocktail on the roof. Walk the halls and wonder at the stories these walls could tell. Join us for a time to remember.
