The Campbell-Whittlesey House is a historic residence located in the Neighborhood of the Arts area of Rochester, New York. The house was built in 1885 by William Campbell, a prominent Rochester businessman. It was designed in the Queen Anne style, and is a two-and-a-half story brick house with a steeply pitched roof, two-story bay windows, and a two-story enclosed porch on the south side.

The house was purchased by William Whittlesey in 1892, and his family owned the house until the late 1960s. In 1969, Rochester Institute of Technology purchased the house for use as an art gallery and museum. The house underwent extensive renovations, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.

Today, the Campbell-Whittlesey House is used by RIT as a gallery and museum, featuring changing exhibitions of art and historical artifacts. It is also used as a meeting space for lectures, seminars, and other events. The house is available for public tours, and its exterior is open to the public during daylight hours.

September 14, 2019: Former Corn Hill Methodist Episcopal Church as seen from Lunsford Circle, Rochester, New York The former Corn Hill Methodist Episcopal Church and present-day End Time Deliverance Miracle Ministry is a longstanding landmark of the Corn Hill district of Rochester, New York whose rich history lies at the intersection of the two rather paradoxical halves of the neighborhood's identity - the favorite abode of Rochester's moneyed class, yet also the historic nucleus of the local African-American community - and serves as a testimony to locals' commitment to historic preservation, having been rebuilt after a devastating 1971 arson fire.
