DETAILS:

Originally designed by Solon S. Beman in the early 1880s as a boarding house for single men working at the Pullman shops, the Florence Lowden Miller Welcome Center has lived many lives. After its time as worker housing, it was purchased by the Freemasons, who transformed it into a temple. In the 1970s, the Historic Pullman Foundation acquired the building and used it as a welcome center, a senior center, and an early childhood learning center. Today, it serves as the headquarters of the Historic Pullman Foundation. The building houses HPF’s main offices, a community meeting space, and is home to the archives for the people of Pullman.

VISITOR EXPERIENCE:

Visitors can explore the building’s first floor and former dining room. A special display of historic artifacts from HPF’s collection will be on view, thoughtfully curated for this weekend, offering a glimpse into Pullman’s layered past. This is a self-guided, untimed experience, organized station-by-station.
