The Lagonda Club Building is a historic clubhouse in downtown Springfield, Ohio, United States. Designed by Frank Mills Andrews,[1] a leading period architect who was responsible for the construction of the Kentucky State Capitol, the clubhouse is a three-story structure with a large basement. Various materials are present on different parts of the exterior — while the foundation/ground floor is constructed of dressed limestone, the first through third stories are faced with brick; their only stone elements are stone trim around some of the windows.[2]

Completed in 1895,[1] the Lagonda Club is an early example of Beaux-Arts architecture. This style was favored by Andrews, whose work appears to have been influenced by Louis Sullivan's preferred style.[2] After the Lagonda Club ceased to use the building, it became the headquarters of the local chamber of commerce.[1] Today, the property is again owned by the club (now known as "Club Lagonda"), which seeks to rent most of its space to businesses.[3] Because of its historically significant architecture and its place in Ohio's history, the Lagonda Club Building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975; at the same intersection is located another landmark, the former Warder Public Library.[1]
