Original clubhouse With other wealthy women, including
Anne Tracy Morgan (a daughter of
J.P. Morgan), Harriman raised $500,000, and commissioned
Stanford White of
McKim, Mead & White to build the original clubhouse, later known as the "Old Colony Club". This building – at 120 Madison Avenue, between East 30th and East 31st Streets on the west side of Madison – was built between 1904 and 1908 and was modelled on eighteenth-century houses in
Annapolis, Maryland. The Old Colony Club was sold to
Genevieve Garvan Brady after the club moved to its new location in 1916. Today, the building houses the East Coast headquarters of the
American Academy of Dramatic Arts. It was awarded
landmark status by the City of New York in 1966. and constructed from 1914 to 1916. It was designed by
Delano & Aldrich in the
Neo-Georgian style, with interiors designed by
Elsie de Wolfe. The building has a marble base with red-brick and marble trim and columns for the upper floors. The Club presently has approximately 2,500 members who have access to discussions, concerts, and wellness and athletic programs. The Clubhouse consists of seven stories, 25 guest bedrooms, three dining rooms, two ballrooms, a lounge, a squash court, an indoor pool, a fitness facility and three personal spa service rooms. Annual gross revenues are more than $10 million. ==Reciprocal Clubs==
