Elks Lodge No. 468
Built 1903 to 1904; modified 1913

The oldest lodge building in Kingman, this 1903-04 building was originally financed
and cooperatively used by the Elks, the International Order of Odd Fellows, and the
Kinghts of Pythias. The first story was used as an opera house. The Richardsonian
Romanesque revival style is compatible with rusticated stone cut from nearby
Metcalfe Quarry.
