Aqaba Bar and Restaurant

Description

This building was originally the home of the United Manawatu Lodge 1721, EC., opened and dedicated on July 24, 1931. It was designed by Ernst West, a local architect and Mason. In the late 1980s the building became too expensive to maintain and was sold and renovated into the Aqaba bar & restaurant. Two panels of hieroglyphics translate to “Thy name shall live upon earth; thy name shall endure upon earth, thou shalt never perish; thou shalt never come to an end”.
