Union League Club House, cor. 26th St. and Madison Avenue. The Union League was founded in 1863 to support the Union in the Civil War. This is the Union League Club’s second clubhouse, known as the Jerome Mansion, located at East 26th Street and Madison Avenue (across from Madison Square Park), built around 1865 for financier Leonard Jerome, father of Jennie Jerome (Lady Randolph Churchill). This opulent mansion, known for lavish parties, served as the club’s home from about 1868 until the club moved to its current Park Avenue location, with the mansion later demolished. The League is still operating as a private club in NYC.
