B.C. Jordan Memorial Hall, Ocean Park, Maine

Primarily an assembly center for theatrical presentation, concerts, and community meetings, the B.C. Jordan Memorial Hall sits beside The Temple, Porter Hall, and the Bell Tower on a small parcel of land called Temple Square in Old Orchard Beach. Jordan Hall’s exterior with its commanding Federal Style facade, contrasts sharply with its warm and unembellished interior. Natural wood planking and exposed structural elements pervade Jordan Hall’s interior from floor to ceiling, embodying its camp meeting movement intent—popular in the late 19th century—focusing on self-improvement in a natural setting.
