Life Savers Building is a historic commercial and industrial building located at Port Chester, Westchester County, New York. It was built in 1920 and expanded in 1948-1949. It served as a manufacturing facility and headquarters of the Life Savers Candy Company until 1984. It is five stories high and constructed of reinforced concrete, brick, and terra cotta. It features larger-than-life replicas of Life Savers rolls at the foundation line. During its peak period of production in the 1960s, as many as 616 million rolls of Life Savers candy were produced each year in the facility. It was converted into a condominium complex in 1989.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
