The structure that Tower invested was none other than the old Cottage clubhouse, originally built in 1892, which was moved farther down the street to make way for Cottage's grand new Georgian Revival home. This solid building, notable for its full shingle construction and turrets, served Tower from 1904 to 1911. (The newly formed Cloister Inn was the next tenant.)
