Wordsmith 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2006 I found this lovely account of a night at the Oakland Health Club on Oakland Ave. Built in 1930 it has been a favored after-work spot for many a man in Detroit. And I couldn't wait to share this with everyone, perhaps we all (or actually not all since it's a men's only place for certain reasons) need a nice opportunity to relax given how tense things have become lately: http://members.aol.com/OABH1930/index.html WS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haydenth 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2006 I've always wanted to join a men's club, like that or a "cigar room" type business, but I'm too intimated! I feel like only the rich and powerful hang out at places like that. I'm just a schmuck looking for a place to relax after a rough day in the office and not be bothered. What goes in the video room?

I was in there a few weeks ago and noticed a rather large sign on the wall for the "Oakland Health Club" surrounded by pictures of "Harry" and his family and friends.
