The Independent Order of Odd Fellows Hall in Salt Lake City, Utah, also known as the I.O.O.F. Hall, was built in 1891. It was designed by George F. Costersian in Richardsonian Romanesque style.[1]

The building served historically as a meeting hall[1] for the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. It is one of the few remaining examples of a large number of Richardsonian Romanesque commercial buildings erected in Salt Lake City during an 1889–1893 building boom.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.[1]

At some point, it was moved to make way to the new Court House.
