An
old matchbook cover ( above) from the Miami Night
Club circa 1940's/ 1950's. This was back when the
"Block" was actually several blocks in length, as
the location of the club is currently the entrance
to the Baltimore City Police Headquarters.
|
| There
are actually two kinds of clubs Kilduff's will
explore on this page, Entertainment clubs and
social clubs. Baltimore has long been famous for
" The Block " and all the clubs located
there, and clubs have popped up all over the
City. Pennsylvania Avenue had some of the most
famous clubs on it's strip, and over the years,
most of those clubs have closed.

| Merchants Club 206 East Redwood Street Baltimore
Opened in 1882, the club was the place
for all of Baltimore's Elite. The old club burned in
the 1904 , but was rebuilt and reopened in 1905, at
206 East Redwood Street. Prohibition closed the bar
for a time, and back in the 1930's, a very decent
lunch could be had for .75 cents. Crab cakes
sandwiches may have started here in the 1930's (
under a diiferent recipe from today ) . The club was
open in the 1950's, but has since closed, not sure
when.
