Sometime
before the signing of the Official Charter of the Binghamton Club,
58 professional businessmen began meeting in rented rooms in the City
National Bank.
On November 20, 1880, 46 of this original group signed a charter officially
establishing the Binghamton Club. For six years thereafter, the club
was governed by a "Committee of Three" and continued to
meet in rented rooms.
In 1923, a committee, appointed by the Board of Governors, recommended
that the Club purchase the "Old Abbott Property" located
at 83 Front Street and that a new clubhouse be erected for member
use. The proposal was accepted and construction of the new structure
was completed in 1924.
