Troy Masonic Temple
Troy Masonic Temple

Troy’s Masonic Temple, dedicated April 2, 1871. It was on the west side of Third Street, between Broadway and River Street. Given the age of the other buildings there, I’d guess its site is now taken by the Rensselaer Center of Applied Geology building.

(Update: guess again. Having looked at the street, I’d guess its site is now taken by the current Masonic building. Oops.)
