William B. Stratton designed this building for the Women’s City Club of Detroit--founded in 1919 “to promote a broad acquaintance among women” and to further civic and cultural activities. The club, which grew to be one of the largest women’s clubs in the world with a membership of over eight thousand in the 1950s, occupied this building from 1924 to 1975. Mary Chase Perry Stratton’s Pewabic tile is featured throughout.
