About the Metropolitan Club
The Metropolitan Club was founded by a group of prominent New Yorkers that included among them J. Pierpont Morgan, the first club President. Designed by Stanford White at the height of the American Renaissance, the Club is a social and architectural landmark, cherished by members and guests alike for more than a century. Upon completion, the "Marble Palace", as described by the New York Times, was the largest and grandest of the area mansions.
