The James Charnley House is a learned society headquarters and historic house museum at 1365 North Astor Street, along the Gold Coast, in the Near North Side of Chicago in Illinois, United States. Designed by Louis Sullivan of Adler & Sullivan and his apprentice Frank Lloyd Wright for the lumber magnate James Charnley, it was completed in 1892. The house is one of Sullivan's few residential works and one of the only buildings where both Sullivan and Wright were significantly involved in the design. It is owned by the Society of Architectural Historians (SAH), which operates the Charnley–Persky House Museum and uses the building as a headquarters. The Charnley–Persky House is designated as a Chicago landmark and a National Historic Landmark.
