Clarence B. Moore House, Historic residence in Washington Square West, Philadelphia, United States.

The three-story brick building features a steep slate roof, Gothic arched openings, and a circular tower at 1321 Locust Street in Philadelphia.

Wilson Eyre designed this house in 1890 for Clarence Bloomfield Moore, who later became a prominent archaeologist studying Native American sites across the Southeast.

The residence combines multiple architectural elements, including a Venetian loggia, rusticated limestone, Roman brick, and details inspired by Loire Valley chateaux.

The house stands at the intersection of Locust Street and South Juniper Street, between South 13th and South Broad Streets in central Philadelphia.

The building incorporates projecting walled steps and maintains its original exterior materials, earning National Register of Historic Places status in 1973.
