What is the Palo Alto Club on Melville?
Around Town, posted by im curious, a resident of the Downtown North neighborhood, on Jul 26, 2012 at 11:20 am

I live not too far away, and I often bike or walk by this place, a huge beautiful house, at Melville and Webster. It's called the Palo Alto Club, has no web presence, so naturally I'm curious. Anyone know?

Web Link

From the above link: 567 Melville Avenue Palo Alto Club,

Darsie Residence, Ernest Coxhead, architect; L.S. Bean, builder

This link Web Link says that it's a private club & mentions soccer.

I've been curious about it for a long time. I have memories of being in a large house for some type of organized kids' event as a kid. In later years, when I'd cycle by it, I connected that house to those memories, but could be mistaken that the event happened there.

Maybe it's a private club where important types meet up w/local spooks or the gov't & corporate variety? At least, that's what I envision. There's a phone #, btw.
