Private Clubs

Quadrangle Club
Alumni are welcome as members of the venerable Quadrangle Club, a dining, meeting, and entertaining center for University faculty for more than a century. The club, located at the corner of 57th Street and University Avenue, offers a restaurant, bar, sleeping rooms, catering, private rooms for meetings and parties, and clay tennis courts. Facilities have recently been updated, and Quad Club members enjoy reciprocal privileges with University Clubs across the country and in Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, and Israel.
