In the early 1920s, Key & Seal began the process of building a new clubhouse that would be more in keeping with the stone and brick structures that now lined Prospect Avenue. The first proposal was submitted by D.R. Everson, and was reproduced in the Class of 1924 Bric. This design, with its arched entrance and oriel windows, is instantly recognizable as being in the Collegiate Gothic tradition. Once again, however, the initial design was discarded in favor of a later proposal.
