​- Rendering of Cosmopolitan Club lobby with the new vertical lift -

The elegant glass vertical lift shown on the right-hand side of the rendering is the culminating element of the Building on a Legacy campaign.  The design, permitting. and pre-bid phases of the vertical lift project have been completed. Construction has continued from the fall of 2025 to February 2026. The goal is to bring members and visitors from the ground-floor lobby to the dining room above. After extensive research, the vertical lift was found to be the most appropriate for the space and resources of the Club and 1616 Latimer Fund. A Bouy design is the inspiration for an elegant etched glass panel on the north face of the lift. Companion projects include appropriate decor and remodeling of the lobby ladies room. These projects will continue to improve access, safety, and member comfort.
