Alibi Club, Private clubhouse in Downtown Washington, D.C., United States.
The three-story brick townhouse features Renaissance Revival architecture with ornate details and stands near the White House at 1806 Eye Street.
Founded in 1884 by seven Washingtonians, including Marcellus Bailey, the club received its National Register of Historic Places designation in 1994.
The club maintains a collection of artifacts and memorabilia throughout its first two floors, representing significant moments in Washington's social history.
Located in the Golden Triangle neighborhood, the property stands vacant since 2018 but remains a recognized landmark in the district's central area.
The club's name stems from members' practice of providing location excuses when their families inquired about their whereabouts.
