Built in 1882, the Thomas Henry Thompson House is a brick Italianate residence in St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin, notable as both a locally significant example of the architectural style and as the home of an influential immigrant businessman. Thomas Henry Thompson, an Irish-born entrepreneur, established a general store in 1866 that became the principal commercial enterprise in northwest Polk County before later serving as vice-president of the Bank of St. Croix Falls. Thompson was also a local advocate for modern innovations including telephones and automobiles. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984 and is also listed in the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.
