Henry Sheldon Anable (1815–1887) was a 19th-century land speculator and developer, in what is now New York City.

He was responsible for the excavation of the short Anable Basin shipping channel. In the mid 19th century Anable partnered with Eliphalet Nott, a land speculator and developer. Anable was related to Nott, with some sources describing Nott as Anable's father-in-law, and others, as his uncle.
