Berkeley Piano Club, William Woollett (1912); Junk-Riddell Investment Co., designer (1913); 2724 & 2726; founded in 1893 and still active, the Berkeley Piano Club is one of the nation’s few musical clubs with a private performance space. The club has played host to a wide range of performers and is internationally known. It’s also the venue for aspiring pianists in search of a venue to study and play. Nicolas Slonimsky lectured here in 1971. The landmark designation also includes the Bertha Newell house at the front of the property, final residence of John Galen Howard, where his widow continued to live. In an upstairs workshop, a Manhattan Project scientist designed a triggering mechanism for the Atom bomb."
