Columbian Lodge No. 7 Free and Accepted Masons → Flowers Building – Title should be changed per WP:COMMONNAME. While the current title is the name of the building listed on the National Register of Historic Places, that name is obsolete. Today, the subject building is far more commonly called the "Flowers Building" (see google search). Furthermore, the title could be confused with the local Masonic Lodge that gave the building its old name, Colombian Lodge No. 7 F&AM. This Lodge still exists, but today meets in another impressive building entirely (as can be seen on their website). Colombian Lodge has not been associated with the subject building since 1940... over 60 years. I am not sure if the lodge is notable enough for its own article (per WP:BRANCH or not (I have not researched to see if there are any reliable sources that discuss it), but since a COMMONNAME alternative exists for this article, there is no harm in freeing up the lodge name as a potential title, just in case..

Wikipedia's policy on article titles.That was crummy discussion and reasoning on the move back in 2013, with one minor mitigating factor being the ignorance involved, in that the NRHP document was not obtained. The place's significance is as "Columbian Lodge No. 7 Free and Accepted Masons", the name of the building when built and the name used in NRHP listing. I added NRHP document reference, which covers how the significance is architectural in that name. Funny, what some would cover about it in Wikipedia, e.g. in this version of "former masonic buildings" list, is that the "Flowers Building" is a building that "In 1940 converted into office/retail space.[9] Recently converted to an apartment complex." Nothing about significance at all, i.e. not worth covering in Wikipedia. I moved the article back to sensible name and will restore coverage about its significance in the article and in List of Masonic buildings in the United States. -- Doncram ( talk) 13:25, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
