Union Boat Club was founded in 1851 and is the longest continuously operating rowing club in Boston. Union today features a squash and fitness clubhouse located on Chestnut Street in Beacon Hill, Boston along with the boathouse located on the Esplanade of the Charles River.

The camaraderie forged by friendships and athletics was a cornerstone of early club members, and is a tradition continued by the current 700 men and women of Union Boat Club.
