Umatilla Masonic Lodge Hall

The Umatilla Masonic Lodge Hall is a Masonic building in Echo, Oregon. It is one of the oldest edifices in Umatilla County and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The hall was built in Umatilla City in 1868 and disassembled and moved by railroad to its present location in Echo in 1901, after Umatilla City declined economically due in part to railroad development. It was deemed significant for association with development of rail transportation in Echo and Meadows area. And it was deemed significant as "an excellent example of an Italianate False Front style building".[2]
