The June 20th Search Engine Optimization Training Event is being held in the historic Down Town Association in the heart of the financial district of New York City (60 Pine Street).
The Down Town Association -- A Brief History
Constructed in 1886-87 for The Down Town Association, this elegant Romanesque Revival style building was designed by noted architect Charles C. Haight. The Down Town Association, begun in 1860 as a luncheon club, was one of New York's earliest private clubs. Disbanded two years after it was originally started, the Association was reorganized in 1878 and the existing clubhouse was commissioned from member Charles C. Haight, in 1886.
The club he designed for the Association was three bays wide, with a large round arch at the central entranceway and others on the third story where the main dining rooms are located. Faced with Roman brick and highlighted by terra-cotta ornament, the building is striking in its simplicity and refinement.
In 1910-11, a two-bay extension to the east of the original building was constructed to accommodate an expanding membership. This addition, designed by the distinguished architectural firm of Warren & Wetmore, echoes the original building in its materials, fenestration, and details.
Today, the Down Town Association building is only one of two surviving clubhouses which continue to serve the business population of Lower Manhattan. |
