The Independent Order of Odd Fellows building was built during the period of optimism and growth in Stevensville.

The IOOF Hall played a significant humanitarian and social roll in the community.

The upper level was used for their lodge meetings and the lower level housed a popular stage theater in the 1920s.

The brick work and the details exhibit the fine craftsmanship common to the time period.

Erected by Stevensville Main Street Association.
