The James B. Duke House is a mansion located at 1 East 78th Street, on the northeast corner of Fifth Avenue, on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York City. The house is one of the great extant mansions from "Millionaire's Row". It was built for James Buchanan Duke, who was one of the founding partners of American Tobacco Company and the owner of Duke Power. The building has housed the New York University Institute of Fine Arts since 1952.
In designing the house, the architect Horace Trumbauer drew heavily upon the design of French architect Etienne Laclotte's Château Labottière, built in 1773 at 16 Rue de Tivoli in Bordeaux. Trumbauer copied almost verbatim Laclotte's projecting central bay and pediment, stacked columns in antis, bracketed cornice, attic balustrade, and channeled rustication, while improving the proportion of the original. . Duke purchased the site in August 1909 and construction completed in 1912. Three members of the Duke family—James B., his wife Nanaline, and their daughter Doris—lived there with their staff part of the year.
