Masonic Hall (Long Beach, Mississippi)

The Masonic Hall in Long Beach, Mississippi, also the former home of Southern Star Lodge No.

"[7] In 1931, the bank was robbed by three bandits, drawing press attention from as far away as The New York Times.

[10] In November 1998, the Long Beach Historical Society placed its first historical marker in front of the building, which was identified at the time as the oldest commercial building on the city's main street, Jeff Davis Avenue.

[10] In the late 1990s, the renovated building reopened as a coffee and pastry shop known as "The Old Bank," with the old built-in safe still intact.

[10][5] In 2001, the shop was renamed "Bankhouse Coffee" and has been operated under that name since that time by Shawn Montella.
