Bro. Adam S. Alsobrook, AIA, member of University Lodge No. 141, F. & A. M. in Seattle, Washington, just completed a research report entitled: "Early Masonic Meeting Places in Seattle: 1860-1915." This paper explores buildings in Seattle that were constructed specifically for Masonic Lodges, and also sheds light on existing buildings that were adapted for Masonic uses. Many of these early Masonic buildings were lost to the wrecking ball long ago, and only a handful of these buildings survive to this day.
This report is intended to serve as a high-level overview of these buildings. Some of these buildings will be the subject of forthcoming research papers over the coming months.
