Tadmor Lodge No. 923: A Monument in the Making of Ridgewood

Tadmor Lodge No. 923 grew alongside Ridgewood, turning rented rooms, neighborhood bazaars and family networks into a lasting local institution. From its 1914 beginnings to two successive temples and public celebrations, its history reveals how residents built community—and how the lodge continued beyond the neighborhood. Tadmor remains active today, meeting in Astoria.
