Masonic Home, Forest Grove
Title
Masonic Home, Forest Grove
Description
A photograph of the Masonic and Eastern Star Home in Forest Grove, Oregon, as seen from Pacific Avenue on its south side. This facility opened as a retirement home funded by the Masonic Lodge of Oregon in 1922, housing sick and elderly Masons. In 1999, the retirement home moved to new premises on the north side of the property. The original buildings shown here were sold to the McMenamins hotel chain, which renovated and reopened the property as the Grand Lodge hotel in 2000. In this photograph, the entrance gate appears in the foreground; a flagpole is in the middle-ground; and the retirement home is in the background.
