This charming building, now the home of the Collectors Club, was constructed in 1901-02 as the residence of Thomas Benedict Clarke in the fashionable Murray Hill section of New York. An especially notable example of neo-Georgian architecture, it was designed by the firm of McKim, Mead & White and is one of their outstanding residential designs in New York City.
