Elk's Lodge 860

Originally built in 1921, the Elks Lodge 860 on the northeast corner of Main at Sweeney Street has been remodeled over the years. It was designed by architect Louis F. Eggert. However, it still maintains many of its original features.  The Lodge Hall is an impressive room with high ceilings which set off the distinguishing features of the room, four large stained glass windows.  These windows embody the four precepts of the Elks Lodge fraternity:  brotherly love, charity, fidelity, and justice.
