Description

Postcard: 4333. Home of B.P.O. [Benevolent Protective Order of] Elks No. 74, Hoboken, N.J. No date, circa 1906-1907; unposted. Undivided back. Published by C. Wolff. Stock number 4333. View of the exterior of the Lodge at 1005 Washington Street. The image itself is not a photograph, but a drawing from an architect's rendering representing the planned building. As built, it varies from what is seen here: among other details the second floor windows do not have the ornate pediments. This building was constructed from mid-1905 to 1906; opened in 1906. (see objects 2006.034.0566 for a postcard in which the architect's titling for this view is seen.) See objects 2006.034.0560 for the same card with a slightly different back.
