TheStock Exchange Luncheon Clubwas a members-onlydining club, on the seventh floorof theNew York Stock Exchange Buildingat 11Wall StreetinManhattan. The club was founded on August 3, 1898, and moved from 70 Broadway to 11 Wall Street when theNew York Stock Exchange(NYSE) opened its new building in 1903. It closed on April 28, 2006, after more than a century of service.

The club had an inaugural membership of 200, with a \"long waiting list\", when it first opened as theLuncheon Clubat 70 Broadway and 15 New Street, Manhattan.

Joseph L. Searles III, who became the firstAfrican Americanmember of the NYSE when he joined in 1970, said that his \"biggest fear...was where would I sit in the luncheon club?\". The situation was resolved when Searles was given his own table by the club, and he dined alone for a while.

A ladies\' restroom was installed in the club as late as 1987, some twenty years after women were first admitted to the NYSE.

In 1999, the club had more than 1,400 members, and was lavishly decorated with various animal heads, most shot by members onsafari.

In August 2001, the Stock Exchange Luncheon Club served as the venue for the presentation of custom-made motorized wheelchairs to 17 quadraplegic in-patients of a local hospital for paralyzed people.A fund-raising event was held by the New York City Police Foundation at the club in November 2003.Following security measures put in place at the NYSE, after theSeptember 11 attacks, the club became less accessible, and this, coupled with the ousting of regular patronRichard Grassofrom the head of the NYSE, and a decline in similar local dining clubs, was cited as a factor in the club\'s demise when it closed in 2006.The space continued to be used for important events for example, the NYSE shareholder vote to merge withEuronexton December 19, 2006.
