Historic Sites of Manitoba: Odd Fellows Hall (376 Mountain Avenue, Neepawa)

This two-storey brick building at Neepawa, designed by Winnipeg architect Hugh Sandham Griffith, was constructed in 1903 for the Neepawa Lodge of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Now the oldest IOOF building in Manitoba, and a provincially-designated historic site, a commemorative plaque was placed on it in 1996 by the Manitoba Heritage Council.
