The Ravenswood Manor Historic District is a historic district in the Albany Park community area of North Side, Chicago, Illinois. It is bordered by the Chicago River, and by Lawrence, Sacramento, and Montrose Avenues.

Ravenswood Manor is a primarily residential neighborhood that was developed during the early twentieth century. It contains many bungalows, and some of the homes along the river have their own docks.[2]

One of the most famous recent residents has been former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich.[3]

The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 5, 2008.[4]
