The Terence V. Powderly House stands at 614 North Main Avenue in Scranton, Pennsylvania, a Victorian-era residence that belonged to the labor leader and politician Terence V. Powderly from his early life until 1921. Powderly (1849–1924) led the Knights of Labor, an early broad-based labor union, and served multiple terms as mayor of Scranton. The house was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1966 and remains a private residence not open to the public.
