The Tripoli Shrine Temple, a Shriners lodge built between 1926 and 1928 in Milwaukee's Concordia neighborhood, showcases Moorish Revival architecture designed by Alfred C. Clas. The building blends Moorish and Indian architectural elements, evoking the appearance of the Taj Mahal, though it serves as a fraternal gathering space rather than a house of worship. Its distinctive style reflects the exotic aesthetic preferences of early twentieth-century American Shriners organizations. The temple is listed on both the National Register of Historic Places and the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.
