Consulate of the United States, Liverpool, Former diplomatic building in Paradise Street, Liverpool, United Kingdom.
The United States Consulate occupied the third floor of the Cunard building at Liverpool's Pierhead until its closure in 1975.
Established in 1790 as the first overseas United States consulate, the building represented early diplomatic relations between the newly formed nation and Great Britain.
The consulate employed notable figures including writer Nathaniel Hawthorne and Thomas Haines Dudley, who monitored Confederate activities during the American Civil War.
The former consulate building underwent transformation into The Eagle pub and later received restoration through the Paradise Street development project.
James Maury, serving as consul from 1790 to 1829, founded the American Chamber of Commerce in Liverpool, with his portrait remaining in Liverpool Town Hall.
