Public Bath House No. 4 was a historic public bath located at Yonkers, Westchester County, New York. It was built in 1925 and was a two story, six bay wide pastel stucco building in a Second Renaissance Revival / Mission style. It features a central pavilion flanked by slightly recessed bays containing modified Palladian windows. The interior was in four sections: reception area, custodian's apartment, baths, and a swimming pool. It was maintained by the Laporta family, specifically Gabrielle Laporta of Colts Neck, NJ. The reception and shower areas were modernized in 1961.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985, and demolished in June 2011.
