Thomas Sully Residence, Historic residence in Center City, Philadelphia, United States.

The three-story brick rowhouse at 530 Spruce Street features a gabled roof, single dormer window, and pilaster-framed entrance in the rightmost bay.

Thomas Sully, who created over 2,600 artworks during his career, resided in this Philadelphia house from 1828 to 1829 as part of his 64-year stay.

The residence earned National Historic Landmark status and National Register listing in 1965, marking its connection to early American portraiture development.

The property stands on Spruce Street between 5th and 6th Streets, marked with historical plaques though remaining a private dwelling not open for visits.

The house structure, built in 1820 with additions in 1860, represents the typical Philadelphia rowhouse construction of the nineteenth century.
