I love the Labor Temple. It's very Patricia Neal. When I was in the Stagehand's Union (I never made it off the call list) I used to have to go there to do knot tests. The last one I took, I was so incredibly hungover that I really don't know how I passed. (That was 25 years ago. I don't think I could consume as much these days. Nor could I remember any of the knots)

Later, I went there a few times for events at the Auditorium, which is also quite Moderne.

Just down the street was the IBEW (I think. That or the Machinist's Union) headquarters, which is equally severely fabulous. They moved out and it's a church or something now. Or maybe it's gone entirely. I don't get to Belltown much.

Oh, and who can forget the Catholic Seamen Club?
