The society is known for the windowless Sphinx Tomb, an Egyptian Revival-style building by architect William M. Butterfield in 1903.
It was constructed with reinforced concrete on East Wheelock Street and inspired by the the Temple of Dendur. In addition to providing space for the society’s gatherings, the tomb also includes a living room, a library, a billiards room and a card room, according to Wikipedia.
