Olympic Club

Circa 1908

Originally erected in the late 1800's the Olympic Club was rebuilt to its current state in 1908 after fire damaged the original structure. The saloon is paneled with mahogany and cherry wood and decorated with Tiffany-style shades. French beveled windows and the large outdoor cigar case still remain intact. Many of the original furnishings - coal burning stove, oak pool tables, and other fixtures reflect bygone eras. The sign above the main entrance still proclaims "Ladies Patronage not solicited." This is from the days when this was a private men's club and women were not to be seen on this side of the street. During Prohibition, bootleg liquor was stored in the false bottom pickle barrels in a secret basement.

The Olympic Club remains virtually intact from its original state and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
