001527243 520__ $$aPythian Building. Designed by Henry Wolters. Two African American Knights of Pythias lodges are listed in the 1893 Louisville City Directory. The Temple at 928-932 West Chestnut Street, built in 1914-1915 at a cost of $130,000, served as the Knights' headquarters and housed a drugstore, movie theater, offices, a restaurant, and hotel rooms for men. The ballroom on the sixth floor and the garden on the roof were used for parties and dances. In 1925, 25,000 attendees came to Louisville for the National Pythian Convention. In 1953, the building was sold to the Chestnut Street YMCA. This is still a YMCA today.
