I.O.O.F Hall

1907

In 1881, the I.O.O.F., a fraternal organization, established Springfield Lodge #70. The construction of the lodge in 1907 marked the first building of modern urban character in Springfield. John Hunzicker, a notable Northwest architect, designed the structure. Contractor L.W. Stewart was hired to construct the building for $10,995. While the I.O.O.F. continues to occupy the second floor, there have been a variety of businesses on the first floor. The building is constructed of stucco-faced brick with classical detailing. It can be described as Renaissance Revival with some Spanish Mission Style influences.
