PLNU Meiras Hall

From what I gather Madame Tingley's Theosophical Society included public buildings for the community and several private homes. The building in the above photo is called Meiras Hall and was the private residence of Albert G. Spaulding (the sporting goods tycoon). The Society's Academy Building and Temple of Peace once surrounded Meiras Hall and all 3 of these buildings were topped with these amethyst domes which were lighted at night and could be seen from downtown and offshore.
