The Masonic Hall in Waynesville, North Carolina is a historic Masonic Lodge constructed in 1927 as a meeting hall for a local area Masonic Lodge.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. [1]
It is a three-story, Classical Revival-style steel frame and brick building. The Masons lost the building through bankruptcy in 1930. The building was renovated in 1973. [2]

The company, owned by Shan Arora and Satish Shah and named for a Hindi word that refers to the Church Street address, planned to use the building in a similar manner to the Gateway Club while respecting the history.
