The American Club Taipei (), formerly known as the American Club in China ("ACC"), is a private member-owned club that serves the international community in the Greater Taipei area. The ACC is located in Zhongshan District, Taipei.
History.
Founded in 1968, the ACC is located on the premises of what was the MAAG NCO Open Mess - Club 63, a US enlisted personnel club for MAAG NCOs established in 1957. In the mid-1970s Club 63 was transferred to the U.S. Navy and renamed as the China Seas Club. With the withdrawal of the U.S. military from the island, the China Seas Club ceased operation and was re-purposed as a private club for the U.S. expatriate business community in Taipei, becoming the ACC.
