THE BUILDING The hotel project includes a complete renovation of the historic 107 year-old Masonic Temple building, previously known as the Vandivort Center, along with a new 8,700 square foot addition to the north.

The owners have partnered with preservation organizations to reclaim the building's history and original beauty while creating a thriving social and hospitality venue. THE DESIGN At the forefront of design, Hotel Vandivort will boast a unique boutique design style embracing the historic elements of the building while pairing clean modern design with a vintage industrial vibe.
