In early September, The Commonwealth Club will hold the ribbon cutting for its new building at 110 The Embarcadero, the product of an eight-year effort to purchase and build out a home. It is also the product of a 114-year dream for the public forum to be its own landlord; since its founding in 1903, the Club has rented space to hold its speeches, conversations, and other cultural gatherings.
The Club’s new space, like Fort Mason’s Arts & Culture center, was designed by Leddy Maytum Stacy Architects. You can learn more at commonwealthclub.org.
