Originally a business-themed gentlemen's club, it is now open to men and women of all races, religions, and nationalities.
The Algonquin Club of Boston was founded by a group, including General Charles Taylor.
[2][3] Its clubhouse on Commonwealth Avenue was designed by McKim, Mead & White and completed in 1888, and was soon called "the finest and most perfectly appointed club-house in America"[4] and more recently the "most grandiose" of Boston's clubs.
[5] In October 2020, the club closed for renovations, including a new fitness facility and a roof deck,[6] and re-opened as the 'Quin House in July 2021.
[8] The 'Quin House maintains reciprocal relationships with more than 150 social clubs worldwide.
