The French Consulate General is the consular representation of the French Republic in New York City, New York, in the United States. The consulate general is housed in the Charles E. Mitchell House, at 934 Fifth Avenue, between East 74th and 75th Streets on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

934 Fifth Avenue was the residence of Charles E. Mitchell, who was an American banker whose incautious securities policies facilitated the speculation which led to the Crash of 1929.
