More than a century on Main Street, restored and reopened in 2019.
The Lodge sits at 231 N. Main Street, in a building that has stood on the block since the early 1900s. It began as Main Street storefronts, was home to the Moose Lodge from 1940 to 1967, and was restored and reopened as workspace in 2019, with the brick and the light kept and a Moose emblem set on the facade to honor what came before.
The reason was simple. A downtown office on Main Street is hard to justify for one person or a small team, and a commercial lease is harder still. The Lodge exists to make that address affordable for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and professionals who could not otherwise carry it.
That mission shapes everything in the building. Private offices, coworking memberships, day passes, and a conference room by the hour, with a kitchen, printing, and parking out front. Nothing expensive. Everything functional. You take only the part you need, month to month, and the historic Main Street address comes with it.
Who runs The Lodge
The Lodge was founded by Jay Beard and is run day to day by Cody Savoy, who handles operations and tours. It is independent, not a national franchise, which is why the people you reach are the people who run the place.
When The Lodge opened in 2019, it was covered by RiverBender.com and by AllWork.Space, a coworking-industry publication. The building has been part of downtown Edwardsville for more than a century. The coworking space is the newest chapter.
