University Club of Boston
INTRODUCTION A project almost seven years in the making, our 2021-2022 Renovation marks another chapter in UClub history. The goal of our renovation is to reimagine the UClub in contemporary Boston, while incorporating Club history & heritage, and holding true to our warm, inviting atmosphere. This master plan is a culmination of member surveys and feedback, committee discussions, consultant meetings, focus groups, Club tours, and more. Our team of architects at ARC and interior designers at C&J Katz bring decades of experience with large portfolios of clients. C&J Katz boasts a long list of residential clients, restaurants, retail spaces, and more, including The Country Club and Longwood Cricket Club. The heart of what makes our Club special is our membership. In addition to improved and expanded athletic facilities and services, our master plan has created additional Club spaces for members to gather and build friendships. We’ve aimed to a create a warm, elegant, relaxed club ambiance for members to always feel at home. We pride ourselves on our sense of community, excellence of facilities, and quality of service. Our plans and improvements will elevate member experience, continuing our legacy as Boston’s premier social and athletic Club.
