The property was last surveyed in 1981 with a map code of 5/4 on a City Engineer's Base Map. The 2004 map code is 144/15a.
Built in 1909, this was the home of the Equitable Fraternal Union which was established in Neenah in 1897. The Equitable Fraternal Union was a fraternal life insurance society that had its first quarters on the second floor of the Winnebago Building at W. Wisconsin Avenue and N. Church Street. Having outgrown that facility, the organization built the subject structure in 1909. IN 1930, this organization merged with the Fraternal Reserve Association-another fraternal life insurance society-and it became known as the Equitable Reserve Association. This group continues to own and occupy the building.
