Wilmington Club, also known as the John Merrick House, is a historic clubhouse located at Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware. It was designed by noted architect Edmund George Lind and built in 1864, as a three-story, five bay "T"-plan brownstone dwelling in the Italianate style. The Wilmington Club purchased the building in 1900, and expanded it between 1936 and 1950 and in 1966.[2] The Club incorporated in 1877.[3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.[1]
