Hoffner Lodge is a historic building in the vibrant business district of Northside. The (former) Masonic Lodge was built in 1885 on land donated by wealthy landowner Jacob Hoffner. The building was designed by Albert C. Nash.
The street-level spaces have always housed businesses, previously including a grocery store, laundry, post office, and the original location of Northside Bank and Trust Company (now across the street).
The 2nd and 3rd floors originally served as the Masonic Lodge, with spaces for meetings, performances and, we've been told, solitary confinement (!!!).
