Located at 1421 Oretha Castle Haley Boulevard, this beautiful 3-story historic building originally built in Circa 1866 was purchased by the MW St. Andrew Grand Lodge Ancient Free and Accepted Masons in 1920.
As one of the oldest buildings in New Orleans, LA, it is listed in the National Register of Historic Places as a Contributing Element in the Central City Historic District.
Funds to restore the building will cover design and construction costs related to interior and exterior damage from extensive water infiltration, environmental damage over time, and insect damage. Current building requirements and code updates for structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing and life safety are included along with a new elevator.
