The University Club of Montreal is a private social club in Montreal, Quebec. The club was conceived in December 1906 as a gentlemen's club intended for university graduates, and was incorporated on 8 November 1907. Since 1988 it has been a mixed-sex club.
History[]
Its building was completed around 1912, and is known as "University Club" or as Édifice du Club-Universitaire-de-Montréal.[1][2]
The building, completed in 1913, was designed by Percy Erskine Nobbs, an architect noted for his Arts and Crafts work.[3]
The building was registered as a monument historiques du Quebec on September 29, 1986.[2]
In late 2017, the club was in the process of giving up its historic building.[3]
