In 1926 it moved to the Excelsior Savings Bank Building at 221 W. 57th St. In 1947, it began an arrangement with the Barnard College Club of New York, sharing its rooms at the Barbizon Hotel. This lasted until 1974 when it moved to the York Club, 4 E. 62nd St. Its last know address, in the 1990's, was 24 E. 39th. After its initial fund-raising efforts for Barnard College, the Club had no real connection with the school.
