The Dr. George W. Carr House, also known simply as Carr House, is a historic house at 29 Waterman Street in the College Hill neighborhood of Providence, Rhode Island.[1] The Queen Anne style house was built in 1885 by Edward I. Nickerson and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[2]

The building was purchased by the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in 1916,[2] and has served a variety of roles for the school, most recently as a student cafe named Carr Haus and lounge at RISD.[3] It is one of Providence's early prominent examples of Queen Anne styling.[2] The house is built on a steep slope and located at the corner of a busy intersection of Waterman Street and Benefit Street.[2]

In 1916, the Providence Engineering Society occupied the entire second floor of the building, then owned by RISD.[4][5] In 1926, artist Frank Convers Mathewson (1862–1941) lived in the Carr House.[6]
