The Former Elks Building was built in 1910. It has served as a meeting hall of the benevolent and Protective orders of Elks and as a theater. It was listed on the National Register of Historic places in 1987. The Elks Building is a three-story, fired red brick building designed in the Romanesque Revival style by Holmes Brothers in 1910. Historically, it was one of the Globe's tallest buildings made visually taller by a parapet wall that extends the height an additional half-story and by visually tall windows at the facade. The building's central entry is set in a semicircular, brick, compound arch with a projecting, brick keystone. On either side of the central entry is a side corner entry, featuring a decorative surround. The second and third story windows appear visually to betwo-story in height, divided horizontal, brick panels. At the second story, wooden casement windows are flanked by sidelights and topped by three-light transoms. At the third story, similar windows are crowned by fan-lights; these windows are set in round-headed arches, with projecting, brick keystones. **LOCATED IN AN OPPORTUNITY ZONE**
