The Men's Smoking Room at the Riverside Club, a social club tied to the Waltham Watch Company in Waltham, Massachusetts. The room is arranged for conversation and relaxation, with a large leather sofa, wicker chairs, small tables, potted plants, and a grandfather clock. Men's smoking rooms were common in early twentieth-century clubs, and the Waltham Watch Company was a leading American watchmaker whose factory shaped the city.
