The Buhl IOOF Building in Buhl, Idaho is an Odd Fellows building that was built in 1919-20. It served historically as a clubhouse, as a meeting hall, as a specialty store, and as a business. It was designed in the early commercial style, perhaps the Chicago style. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1][2]

It is a three-story 50 feet (15 m) wide by 120 feet (37 m) deep building with an unusual dressed lava rock (basalt} facade.[2] Tourtellotte and Hummel architect Benjamin Morgan Nisbet designed the hall and also the adjacent Buhl City Hall.
