Grand white Victorian old Masonic Hall, built in 1866, located at 10500 Lansing Street in Mendocino, California, USA. It is also the location of the local branch of the Savings Bank of Mendocino County. This Masonic Hall, also known as the Masonic Temple and Mendocino Lodge No. 179 and is registered on the National Register of Historic Places. It has been used often as the location for movies and TV series such as Murder She Wrote (1984-1996) with Angela Lansbury and two episodes of The Fugitive (2001), with Tim Daly. The town of Mendocino was founded in 1850 as a logging community, and was originally named Meiggsville after Henry Meiggs. Many of its early settlers were New Englanders, as was true with many older Northern California towns. Its economy declined after 1940, and it became a somewhat isolated village until discovered by the region's art community and the Hollywood film industry. It is now a very popular tourist destination.
