- Description:
- The Arbeiter Unterstutzung Verein (Worker Support Club) Hall located at 608 North Grand Avenue. The society was organized in 1875 and built its first hall in 1882; at one time it had over 500 members. The building in this photograph was dedicated in 1905. The gardens in back were the location for many social events. The society was closed out in 1931 due to lack of younger membership, at the time the last of the viable Michigan Arbeiter societies. It was an insurance organization that provided illness and death benefits, mainly for members of Lansing's German-American community, and also a social organization.
