Griffith Thomas (1820—1879) was an American architect. He partnered with his father, Thomas Thomas, at the architecture firm of T. Thomas and Son.[1]

Architecture writer Christopher Gray called him "one of the most prolific architects of the period" (the mid-19th century).[2] The American Institute of Architects in 1908 called him "the most fashionable architect of his generation."[3] Many of his notable buildings are found in New York City.

Griffith Thomas was interred at Green-Wood Cemetery, in Brooklyn, New York in 1879. His own marble monument is simple in comparison to the ornate structures he built during his lifetime.[4]
