The Nassau Club is a historic Gentlemen's Club in Princeton, New Jersey founded in 1889 by, among others, Woodrow Wilson. It moved into its current location in 1903. The clubhouse was originally built in 1813-14 as the home of Samuel Miller, the second professor of the Princeton Theological Seminary, on land belonging to his father-in-law, Continental Congressman Jonathan Dickinson Sergeant. Sergeant had built a large house on the site shortly before the American Revolution but it was burned down during the British occupation prior to the Battle of Princeton.[3]
The club provides dining and social spaces, as well as guest rooms for visiting members. It has allowed both male and female members for several decades. The clubhouse was expanded in 1911, by architect Aymar Embury II,[4] and 1969, with extensive renovations in 1992.[5]
