The Cloud Club occupied the 66th, 67th and 68th floors of the Chrysler Building in New York City. It opened in July 1930 with a membership of 300, including Edward F. Hutton, Conde Nast and the boxer Gene Tunney. The Cloud Club was created partly at the behest of the Texas Company which requested that there be a suitable restaurant for its executives before leasing 14 floors of the new building. The club's design reflected a compromise between William van Alen, who gave the rest of the Chrysler its trademark modernist look, and Walter Chrysler, who preferred a baronial and faux medieval design. Included was a Tudor-style lounge on the 66th floor, with mortise-and-tenon oak paneling, and a Grill Room in Olde English style, with pegged plank floors, wood beams, wrought-iron chandeliers and leaded glass doors.
