Vestibule at front entrance

Brass wall covering in the vestibule.

The Main Entrance Hall. Please stop for a moment and observe the foyer entrance and how it makes for a "mood" transition--you entered up stone steps through wood/glass outer doors, wood inner doors into the foyer – paneled in ornamental protected walls and through a second set of glass doors thence into the building proper. Note the beautiful combination gas and electric chandelier. Look to the fine view of the wonderful staircase with the magnificent mirror to provide depth to the structure. Note the six-foot glass and silk floor lamp. This was a gift to the Lodge by the family of Most Worshipful Charles Smith. Originally it was given by Dingo Lodge No.30 to remind Mr. Smith that he was an honorary member of that Lodge. Also here we view one of the six fireplaces located on the first and second floors. Note the quartered oak paneling and feature woodwork, the "built-in" settee, and draperies that make this a ‘grande’ hallway.
