Description
This circa 1915 postcard shows the headquarters of the Improved Order of Red Men at 917 Tenth Street. The group occupied the eight-story structure until 1920, after which, it was converted into apartments. In 1927, the group moved into a new hall on twenty-First and L Streets. The Red Men draw their title from Colonial origins (1765, to be exact), when the society sought to emulate and promote the ideals of the Iroquois Confederacy and its democratic governing body.
