Masonic Hall, New York City
Masonic Hall is located in the heart of the Flatiron district of Manhattan. There are two buildings that make up Masonic Hall. The 23rd Street building is largely commercial and the 24th Street building is largely devoted to masonic activities. Both are operated by the Trustees of the Masonic Hall and Home. Masonic Hall is home to the headquarters of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of New York and as well as the Chancellor Robert R. Livingston Library and Museum.
Tours of Masonic Hall have been suspended since the beginning of the COVID outbreak in New York. During this post COVID transitioning period, tours are now being scheduled by advance appointment only and are currently being offered only to the masonic community, including brother masons and their families. A request for a tour appointment should be made a week in advance, and at least 48 hours, before the requested tour date. Prior to commencement of a tour all visitors must be able to present evidence of full vaccination for the COVID virus.
Requests for tour appointments may be made for any day Monday-Sunday, at 10am, 12pm and 2pm. No appointments can be approved until the availability of a guide is confirmed.

Historic Masonic Bible of Saint John’s Lodge
Lastly, but certainly not least, we invite you to view the display of the historic Masonic Bible of our Saint John’s Lodge No. One, on which the father of our country, Brother George Washington, took his oath of office as President of the United States of America on April 30, 1789. This precious Masonic and National Treasure is frequently on display at Federal Hall located on Wall Street, New York City.
This King James version Masonic Bible has been subsequently used at the Inaugurations of Presidents Warren G. Harding in 1921, Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1953, Jimmy Carter in 1977, and George H.W. Bush in 1989. The Masonic Bible was brought to Washington, DC to be used at the Inauguration of President George W. Bush, but due to inclement weather another Bible was substituted.
