Eagles Hall, San Diego, San Diego County

Eagles Hall

This structure was, from 1917 to 1951, the headquarters of the San Diego Eagles Aerie. They were a fraternal group making significant philanthropic contributions to the community. Although not distinguished architecturally, the Eagles Hall retains much of its appearance of 1934, a year in which the lodge’s activities, and the hall, were greatly expanded. Following the lead of the Federal Government, the Eagles developed their own public works project employing Eagles lodge members to construct the building. The finished structure was the largest fraternal building in the city. In 1952 Rohr Aircraft Corporation purchased the building when the Eagles outgrew the space and moved. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
