Built in 1926 as a fireproof storage warehouse owned by the Iredale Storage and Moving Company, 1723 Benson Avenue housed a labyrinth of reinforced concrete and brick curtain walls. It was actually five buildings constructed at separate times, four to eight stories tall, filled with about 600 storage compartments and electric freight elevators. The Evanston Athletic Club took over the space in 1980, maintaining much of the building’s façade, skeletal structure and interior elements. In 1990, then-manager Pat Cunningham became the owner. This building is great, if you are on staff you’ll get to ride the old freight elevator. As a member…you’ll have to settle for a dip in the pool or a game on the basketball court.
Expires October 1, 2018. Certificate is for individual membership for new members only.
