Original structure from 1882, remodeled sometime between 1894 and 1913 (almost certainly closer to 1910). The Barthell building is two doors west, and was never owned by the Masons. The last few sentences are very confusing, as they make it seem that the masons moved here from elsewhere, when this building was constructed for them. I cannot find the Airdome on the 1914 map, but there are some vacant areas on W Water close to downtown where it might have operated.
