The Odd Fellows Home
40 Randolph Road

The Odd Fellows Home was designed by Barker and Nourse and opened in 1892. The brick building is three and a half storey’s high with a five storey clock tower. The tower portion is relatively undecorated except for projecting brick piers. Each three storey wing has granite trimmed windows and dormers projecting from the slate covered hip roof. The entrance is through the open Tuscan style porch which has a stone parapet wall.
The acreage for the structure was donated by Thomas Dodge to ensure that there would be adequate land to provide “ample light and air” for the Home’s residents.
Currently there are plans to build new structures on the land and the owner intends to demolish this landmark property.
