The Con Edison Headquarters is the main office of Consolidated Edison, the biggest investor-owned energy company in the United States. Its headquarters building was built at E 14th Street in Manhattan, New York City, in 1911, and it became a local landmark.

The address of Con Edison Headquarters is 4 Irving Place. It occupies a whole city block between East 14th and 15th Streets, and between Irving Place and Third Avenue. The site was occupied by its predecessors, the Manhattan Gas Light Company in 1854, and when it was completed, was originally called the Consolidated Gas Company.

The Con Edison Headquarters was designed by Henry Hardenbergh, who also designed The Plaza Hotel and The Dakota. The 26-storey building was constructed by the same firm that built the Grand Central Terminal.
