New York Tennis Club Open


The New York Lawn Tennis Club was founded in 1886. Its first annual open tournament was held from September to October, 1886. It was played on dirt courts at 147th St. and Nicholas Ave. in Manhattan.
Their quarters were demolished to make way for new construction in 1898. The club's courts ceremoniously opened at 123rd St. and Nicholas Ave. in 1901. The tournament games were played at the Columbia Oval from 1912 to 1917. The club moved out of Manhattan to 238th and Broadway in the Bronx, 1918. It actually took over and restored the former house and courts of the West Side Tennis Club. Its fourth and final move was to the Throggs Neck section of the Bronx in 1928.
