New Century Guild, Women's organization in Philadelphia, United States.

The New Century Guild building at 1307 Locust Street in Philadelphia features a four-story Italianate brick exterior with preserved architectural elements from 1851.

Established in 1882 by Eliza Sproat Turner, the New Century Guild provided educational and professional resources for working women during a period of limited career opportunities.

The organization developed programs for vocational training, evening classes, and networking opportunities, creating a professional community for women across different occupations.

The building contains meeting spaces, a research library, and archived materials documenting women's labor movements, now accessible through the Historical Society of Pennsylvania.

In 2021, the historic structure transformed into the Guild House Hotel, incorporating original artifacts and artwork from the organization's collection into its design.
