Friese Greene House is a residential development at the corner of Portland Road and School Road in Aldrington, part of the City of Brighton and Hove. It was designed by Conran and Partners and built in 2014 on the site of the old Granada Cinema. The building, which is owned by housing association Affinity Sutton, is named after William Friese-Greene, the motion picture pioneer who lived in Brighton from 1903 until his death in 1921. (Separately, an office building in Middle Street in Brighton, opposite his former workshop premises, is also called Friese-Greene House. In the 1980s it was home to British Rail's European Rail Traffic Accounting Centre and the European Ticket Supply Section.)
