The Kilbourn Masonic Temple is a historic building located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It was constructed in 1911 as a meeting hall for a local Masonic lodge (the Masons no longer meet in the building).[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1] When it celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2011, the temple was automatically deemed a landmark in the city of Milwaukee. The temple now serves as a fraternity house for the Kappa Sigma chapter at Marquette University.[3]
