Johns Hopkins Club
When the University moved to the Homewood campus, the
Johns Hopkins Club moved with it, occupying
Homewood House until
1929,
when that building was restored as a museum. Club members had to
content themselves with a small dining room in Levering Hall
until 1936, when Theodore Marburg (trustee 1902-45) and his
sister Amelia, provided the necessary funds to construct the
current building, in memory of their brothers, William and
Charles. The architects Wrenn, Lewis and Jencks designed a modern
counterpart to Homewood House, continuing the tradition of
Georgian buildings on campus. An addition, comprising an office
and additional kitchen space, was made in 1956, and the kitchen
facilities were again renovated and added to in 1980-81.
Additional dining space was added in 1986-87.
