Notes
  • Written data includes photocopies of maps and photographs.
  • Significance: A landmark that signaled the evolution of Penn-Liberty from a produce market to a center of civic activity, is significant for its social and architectural heritage. Within Penn Avenue's streetscape, the temple stands as a monument to the Pittsburgh Lodge No. 46, Loyal Order of Moose, whom it housed from 1915-1943, and as an entertainment hall for the city's members and non-members alike. Architecturally, Moose Hall, completed in 1915 is a splendid example of Beaux Arts style design, a credit to its Pittsburgh architect, U.J. Lincoln Peoples.
