Masonic Temple - Photos Interior (Unfinished Theater)

Masonic Temple

The Temple boasts two grand theaters, but it was originally meant to have a third. A private, 700-seat theater for Masons was planned on the 7th floor, envisioned by Corrado Parducci as a classical Greek amphitheater. However, it was never completed - Photo taken Feb 04, 2025
