Inscription. In the early 1900s, this building hosted a candy shop that catered to the city's sweet tooth, aptly named the Bucyrus Candy Kitchen. While the Candy Kitchen provided delicious sweets to the community, the Loyal Order of Moose established their meeting hall on the Second and third floors. In 1941, the Palm Supper Club replaced the Moose Hall and gave club members a place to eat, drink, smoke, and gamble. The Palm Supper Club featured many magnificent murals on the walls, and those murals are still on those walls in good condition.

Erected 2011 by Eagle Project - Alexander Clark Neff.
