University Club

This is the University Club in Detroit. From what I could gather, it was formed in 1899, originally located at Woodward and Larned, the club was moved in 1931 to this site on East Jefferson. Members had to have graduated from a university or some other form of higher education. The first woman to be allowed to actually be a member was a stockbroker, Susan Reck in 1978. The club went into bankruptcy in 1992. It is now abandoned, but with only a few noticeable areas, it still looks pretty good....from the outside at least!
