Medford's Elks Lodge Building, completed in 1915, was designed by noted Medford architect Frank Chamberlain Clark. Built in the Beaux Arts Classicism style, the structure is three stories tall and features a high basement, large Greek Corinthian columns and a dramatic, bowed entrance. The building continues to serve as the meeting house of B.P.O.E. Lodge #1168 and its condition reflects recent restoration efforts.
