For over a century, the Harvard Club of New York City has been the

standard by which university clubs are measured. Now, with the addition

of a gleaming eight-story, 41,000 square-foot building, the Club has

boldly affirmed its leadership and commitment to tomorrow's generation.

The new facilities, which feature meeting rooms, additional guest rooms,

and an expanded state-of-the-art kitchen, are intelligently integrated with

the familiar, Neo-Georgian architecture reminiscent of Harvard University

itself. From the incomparable Harvard Hall to conference rooms outfitted

with the latest technology, the Club is informed by history as it embraces

the future. Ideally located in midtown Manhattan, the Harvard Club of

New York City is the smart choice for a full spectrum of year-round events.
