Our Historical Site

Union League is sited on the homestead of New Haven’s first mayor, Roger Sherman—the only American whose name appears on the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, and the Constitution. One hundred years later, Gaius Fenn Warner, one of the city’s leading industrialists, built his townhouse on the site. From the 1880s through 1940s, it became home to the Union League Club, a private civic and social club with the twin goals of cultivating "a profound national devotion" and to "strengthen a love and respect for the Union." Designed in the Beaux Arts tradition by New Haven architect Richard Williams, the building is a city and national landmark.
