Description	The 1837 Gothams Club of NYC played at Madison Square, described as at 23rd/24th Streets and 5th/6th Avenues and opposite the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Thompson's Madison Cottage was at the southwest corner. By the 1840s this club played at Elysian Field. The site is still there. It is just north of the Flatiron Building (175 Fifth Avenue).
