Description
This circa 1925 photograph shows a relatively new Scottish Rite Temple at the southwest corner of Twenty-Eighth and L Streets. Placed on a 90 by 160 foot lot, the structure was built of brick, stone and concrete in 1916/17 for a cost of 125,000 dollars. Its dedication came on January 13, 1917, the birthday of one of the building's more liberal benefactors, William H. Crocker, then the president of the San Francisco Scottish Rite Temple Association and native Sacramentan. It wqas felled by fire in November 1958.
