Mesa Woman's Club House

On March 9, 1917, fifty-three women, inspired by Margaret Wheeler Ross, past president, 1914-1916, of the General Federation of Women's Clubs of Arizona, chartered the "Woman's Club of Mesa". Since 1901, Federated Women's Clubs, an international organization, has supported cultural and social activities, working for the betterment of family life. The Mesa group affiliated with the Federation and began in 1918 to raise funds for a club house. Distinguished by a corner turret capped with a red clay tile roof, this Spanish Colonial Revival brick building was completed on October 30, 1931.

Listed: National Register of Historic Places, 1991.

Marker is at the intersection of North MacDonald Street and West Second Street, on the right when traveling south on North MacDonald Street.
