When the clubs along Prospect began to take on more formal exteriors, Elm decided to remodel. In 1930, Elm thoroughly renovated its building, adding a rectangular living room to the east end of the club and eliminating many of its Italianate Revival elements. The overhanging roof was removed, and the old stone balustrades along the second-floor sun porch and balcony were replaced with a wrought- iron railing. The Ionic pillars in the first level under the sun porch also vanished and dark green exterior shutters were added to all the windows.
