The Manor House is a 1908 condominium building in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood, designed by architect John Edmund Oldaker Pridmore in the Tudor Revival style. It's long been said to have housed the British consul in Chicago, though the Edgewater Historical Society has found no evidence supporting the claim.
