The swanky QUEEN CITY CLUB BUILDING, SW, corner of Fourth St. and
Broadway, designed by Henry Hake, is a 4-story stone structure in modified
Italian Renaissance style. On the Fourth Street side are stylized symbols
of industry and commerce; on the Broadway exterior, symbols of art and
agriculture. The building has a library, dining room, ballroom, and
billiard room, besides a number of rooms for lodgers.
Organized in 1874, the club moved into its present quarters in 1927.
Membership is drawn from professional, industrial, and commercial circles.
