Built in 1897 in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, the West End Wheelmen's Club is a three-story Shingle Style clubhouse distinguished by its frame construction and a wraparound porch, along with a porte cochere. Originally serving the cycling enthusiasts of the era, the building later housed the Franklin Club and Knights of Columbus. After a fire in 1913 damaged the rear section, that portion was rebuilt. The structure was recognized with a listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
