third-story landing was furnished with 17 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. These were rented to members for up to a week at a time. Fourth through sixth floors The fourth floor contains the library, reading and writing rooms, and council chamber. In the center is an atrium similar in dimension to that of the first floor. The design was characterized by contemporary media as "Pompeian" in style, with brightly colored columns and walls and a neutrally tinted ceiling. The room's main architectural features are ivory-toned, with a background of panels in rich reds and russets, as well as two niches containing statues. The center of the south wall has an Istrian-style doorway leading to the center of the club's private library. There are marble sculpture busts depicting ancient philosophers Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, and Plato. These were sculpted in Rome by M. Ezekiel and were presented to the club in 1905 by member John Woodruff Simpson. The center of the east wall has another doorway leading to the magazine room, and the center of the north wall leads to a large room with a groin vault. The library measures long, wide, and high. According to a club brochure, the library has approximately 100,000 books and periodicals; a source from 1994 described the library as having 130,000 volumes. It is decorated in English oak with marble wainscoting. There are five alcoves on each of the north and south walls. The alcoves measure deep and contain walnut bookcases, except that the center alcove on the north wall leads from the atrium. The windows on the south side are lit by the windows along 54th Street. The space between the alcoves on opposite walls is wide and contains a vaulted ceiling divided into five sections. The library's ceiling and walls are decorated with a series of murals by Harry Siddons Mowbray. The pieces symbolize various subjects and are composed both of original work by Mowbray and copies of Pinturicchio. Small staircases between the vaults lead to balconies above each alcove on the fifth floor, which contain access to the upper shelves. Above the openings leading to these staircases are niches with bronze sculpture busts. The design in general was meant to be evocative of the Borgia Apartments at the Vatican. The gallery is bounded on the east and west by additional rectangular study rooms, each with portraits and bookshelves. North of the east
