Albany Masonic Temple
The Albany Masonic Temple in Albany, New York sits on the oldest property continuously owned by Masonry and the building that it replaced on the same property was the first Masonic Temple to be built for that sole purpose.
==History==
British army officers during the Seven Years' War (also known as the French and Indian Wars) is considered to have been the impetus for the creation of a local lodge in Albany.〔 The soldiers were a part of a military lodge that was organized in 1737 under the auspices of the Irish Registry,〔 they met in Albany in 1758 and when they left certain members of the local populace who had joined the Masonic order were allowed to continue to meet and recruit for the Order until they could get own charter as a lodge.〔 In 1765 they were made the Union Lodge #1 and in 1766 they were given the deed to a lot on the corner of Maiden Lane and Lodge Street by the city. The cornerstone of the first Temple on this site was laid the next year in 1767,〔 with the Temple being dedicated in 1768.〔 Prior to this meetings were held at Richard Cartwright's Southside Inn. After the US Revolutionary War the lodge gave up its charter and was reorganized as Mount Vernon Lodge #3 in 1807.
The Temple is the site of meetings for five different lodges.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Albany Masonic Temple )〕 Mount Vernon Number 3, the former Union Number 1, is the oldest lodge in the state of New York outside of the city of New York and meets at the Temple.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://albanymasons.org/lodges.html )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mount Vernon #3 History )〕 The Guttenburg Lodge Number 737, founded in 1873 as a German language speaking lodge moved to the Temple when it was built in 1896, from their location at the WM Whitney Building, dropping German for English in 1900.〔 The Wadsworth Lodge Number 417 has met in the Temple from the founding of the current in building in 1896, having been founded in 1856 and having different meeting places throughout Downtown Albany prior to that.
