Masonic Temple, Masonic temple in St. John's, Canada.

The three-story brick structure features classical architectural elements including pilasters, free-standing columns, and multiple pediments across its Victorian facade.

The cornerstone placement ceremony occurred on August 23, 1894, led by Newfoundland Prime Minister Sir William Whiteway during the building's construction.

The main room contains a pipe organ dedicated in 1916, funded through contributions from Sir John Chalker Crosbie for Masonic ceremonies.

The structure served as a Masonic meeting place from November 1896 until June 2007, when activities transferred to a new building in Mount Pearl.

This building stands as the largest brick fraternal meeting hall in Newfoundland, constructed with imported Accrington bricks upon a stone foundation.
