The overcrowded conditions at 36 Alpine Road provided the catalyst for a renewed effort to find a new Club facility in early 1993. One such place under consideration was a building in Woburn, Massachusetts, which was located next door to the local ITAM Club. (ITalian AMerican) The facility had more than enough room and ample parking. Serious negations were entered into with the owner, and in March, 1984, the TCNE Real Estate Trust was formed. Its purpose was to provide the means to raise money to purchase the property and to operate it on behalf of the Club. However, neither the proposed location, nor the financing arrangements generated much member support. Negotiations ended in August when the owner refused to accept the Club’s offer. No further action was taken.
