York Club
The York Club is a private social club that was incorporated on November 22, 1909. It is located at 135 St. George Street in The Annex neighbourhood of central Toronto, Ontario, Canada, close to the University of Toronto.
The club's building was originally constructed between 1889 and 1892 as a residence for businessman George Gooderham Sr. and his large family. Gooderham was a son of William Gooderham and served as president of the Gooderham and Worts distillery. The house was designed in the Romanesque Revival style by architect David Roberts Jr., who also designed the Gooderham Building downtown.
After Gooderham died in May 1905, at the age of 75, his widow Harriet Gooderham sold the house and moved to a smaller home nearby at 224 St. George Street. The York Club has owned the building since 1910.
