Harvey Mansion, Federal-style mansion in downtown New Bern, United States.

Harvey Mansion is a three-story brick structure with an exposed basement located in downtown New Bern on South Front Street. The building displays classical federal-era architectural features and has been maintained to preserve its historic appearance and character.

John Harvey built this structure in 1793 as his private residence during New Bern's prosperous years. The Union Army later occupied it temporarily during the American Civil War as a military barracks.

The building's name comes from John Harvey, who used it both as a home and as commercial space. Over the years it also housed a family-owned restaurant and served as the original home of what is now Craven Community College, a use that ties the house to the town's educational history.

The building stands on South Front Street in downtown New Bern, within walking distance of the city's other historic sites. It is a three-story brick dwelling with an exposed basement, so expect stairs between levels. The house has served many purposes over its lifetime, from apartment house to military academy, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1971.

The building's longest-running role was educational: it housed a boarding school and a military academy, and was the original home of what is now Craven Community College before the college moved elsewhere. The same brick dwelling has also served as an apartment house and a family-owned restaurant.
