Health & Fitness Clubs
Founded in 1898, the Women's Athletic Club is the first athletic club for women in America. Created "by ladies for ladies," members use its facilities for meetings, entertaining, and lectures. Members conceived of an oasis for women who sought a "retreat where health, grace, and vigor can be restored." Throughout its history the club has adapted to the changing needs of its members. By continually developing new programs and facilities, the Women's Athletic Club remains a place where yesterday's rich traditions are expressed in today's contemporary style. 626 N.
