Originally constructed in 1903 for the Pure Oil Company, Crane Hall was built with beams that were manufactured by Carnegie Steel, a company founded and run by one of America’s great industrial magnates and philanthropists, Andrew Carnegie. Every column within the building boasts the Carnegie Steel Co. seal, each one a true piece of American History. After the local oil boom in Montgomery County began to wind down in the early 1990s, the building changed hands among owners until finally becoming what many in the local area will remember as the Fire and Ice Hall, located on modern day FM 2854 near Honea-Egypt Road. In March of 2015, the bones of this historical building were carefully removed from the Honea Settlement on the West bank of the San Jacinto River in Montgomery County, and Iron Manor broke ground 3 years later in July 2018 at its current site. Iron Manor took a pain-staking 2 1/2 years to restore and design into the elegant 17,000 square feet that are within its riveted-steel and brick walls today. Over the course of that time, we’ve brought in a specialized general contractor, multiple engineers, architects, industrial artists, lighting designers and others from across the country simply for the fact that this building deserved it. In a modern world where the art of the building itself is lost and every new block of urban sprawl looks exactly the same as the last, we wanted to create something that would simply be unlike any other building around, truly our version of art. We are honored that you have taken an interest in Iron Manor and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
