On this Behind the Scenes tour, we'll explore Detroit's Masonic Temple, the largest building of its kind in the world. Construction of this imposing multi-function complex was completed in 1926, and its unique design included three theaters (one was never completed, but is sometimes used by movie-production crews), a Shrine building, the Chapel, eight lodge rooms, a 17,500 square foot drill hall, two ballrooms, office space, a cafeteria, dining rooms, a barber shop, 16 bowling lanes--1037 rooms in total--in addition to a powerhouse that generated all electricity for the complex.
A Masonic docent will lead us through the building and discuss its long history.
