Summary
At Broad and Sansom Streets stands the Union League’s purpose-built clubhouse, begun in 1864 and opened in May 1865 after wartime shortages delayed construction and prevented Abraham Lincoln from attending as its honored guest. Designed by John Fraser and later expanded by Horace Trumbauer, the building grew into a full city block and has since welcomed presidents, diplomats, and national leaders, remaining a living symbol of the League’s enduring mission of patriotic civic leadership.
