The Army and Navy Club Revenue and Competitors

Since our formation as a Club in 1885, The Army and Navy Club has been a home away from home for our country's military officers. We are known for our superior facilities, emphasis on fine food and wines, extraordinary Library, special events designed to benefit our members, the warmth and dedication of our staff, and the special camaraderie enjoyed by our members and guests. We also take particular pride in having been chosen as a Five Star Platinum Club. This singles us out as one of the Top 50 City Clubs in the United States. We have had occasion to build and open, in sequence, three clubhouses over the years. All three have fronted on Farragut Square, a most appropriate location for a military club. Each was ceremoniously opened by a President of the United States. In 1891, Benjamin Harrison dedicated our first, William Howard Taft our second in 1912, and Ronald Reagan opened our current beautiful Italian Renaissance building in 1987 after a three-year demolition/rebuild project. Our clubhouse is designated by the National Capital Region as a “Historic Landmark, Category III, Building of Local Significance." The most illustrious names in military and political history have, and continue to grace our membership rolls. We offer qualified individuals the opportunity to apply for resident (within 30 miles of the Club) or non-resident membership. The majority of our members are active, former and retired military officers, but we welcome, as associate members, individuals who share our values.
