Up to you.
A directory called download or sources in your $HOME makes sense.
Sources for source tarballs of course

I suspected you intend to do a installation via compilation.
Also, I guess you are quite new to linux.
May I suggest to install whatever application you need with the package manager?
A package manager is much easier to handle than installing from source.
