"Following the example of the Sainte Claire Club, the Masons chose to build their first temple facing St. James Park, This structure, which late became the home of the Eagles order, was one of the finest examples of Greek revival architecture in San Jose, The massive doric columns and the facade of the original building have been incorporated into the new office building which was constructed on the site of the hall."
"The "original" Scottish Rite Temple was built in 1900 in the Greek revival style of architecture. The Masonic order moved to a new location at 3rd and St. James Streets, and this building then operated as Eagles Hall.
The front portico is the only remaining portion of the original building. It functions as a handsome business building today."
