Oakland Golf Club
Oakland Golf Club is a former golf country club in Bayside, New York. The club was founded in 1896 and disbanded in 1952. The former site is now the site of the Queensboro Community College. It was the second oldest course in Queens, New York. Its membership included H. P. Whitney, W. K. Vanderbilt, Walter Travis, and Bernard Baruch. Tom Bendelow designed the first nine holes at the golf course in 1897 and Walter Travis designed the second nine holes in 1905. The course was re-designed by golf course designer, Seth Raynor, in 1919. Roger Bullard was the architect for the golf course's clubhouse. The former clubhouse of the golf course now serves as the college's Oakland Building and includes an art gallery. Benjamin N. Cardozo High School was also built on the former site of the golf course.
