B.P.O.E. Block, Elk Lodge #711

Constructed in 1909-1910 by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Tintic Lodge #711, this $30,000 building was designed by architects Richard C. Watkins and John F. Birch and built by contractor Martin E. Anderson of Logan. The Elks Lodge meeting hall occupied the upper floor, rooms were rented to doctors and lawyers, and the lower floor was initially rented to the Hefferman-Thompson Company, a general merchandise business. Later tenants included Norman and Jenson and J.C. Penney's. A small structure on the west side was added sometime between 1910 and 1923, and in 1929 a second story containing five rooms for office suites was built, while the lower floor of the small building was occupied by the Eureka Mercantile Commission Company. The Elks Tintic Lodge was organized on June 20, 1901.
