The Park Country Club

The Park Country Club of Buffalo, Inc. is a country club located in Williamsville, New York, a suburb of Buffalo, USA. The club was founded in 1903 in the City of Buffalo in what is now known as Delaware Park, but which was known simply as "The Park" at the time.

Clubhouse

The club moved out of the city to its current location on Ellicott Creek in 1928. The current clubhouse was designed by noted architect Clifford C. Wendehack and was originally decorated by George Hoag of Prentiss & Company. The clubhouse is a built of "brick and stone of many varieties, French fossil and Jeanne d’Arc having been blended with Holland brick," according to contemporary newspaper reports. The clubhouse has since been expanded, including kitchen facilities and lounge and locker rooms, in consistent English Gothic and Tudor style. [http://www.hhlarchitects.com/projects/PDFs/pcc.pdf]
