Roanoke Park, Historic district in Capitol Hill, Seattle, United States.

Roanoke Park is a 2.2-acre (0.89 ha) public park in Seattle, Washington, occupying the block bounded by E. Edgar and Roanoke Streets to the north and south and 10th Avenue E. and Broadway E. to the east and west. It sits between the north Capitol Hill and Portage Bay neighborhoods, just northeast of the junction of State Route 520 and Interstate 5.

Roanoke Park is a 2.2-acre park, not a residential district. David T. Denny and Henry Fuhrman named it after Roanoke, Virginia, and the city of Seattle bought the land in 1908. It lies between the north Capitol Hill and Portage Bay neighborhoods, just northeast of the State Route 520 and Interstate 5 junction.

The park's name comes from Roanoke, Virginia, chosen by David T. Denny and Henry Fuhrman. Denny was a member of the family that founded Seattle, and the name ties this small green space to a Virginia place rather than to the surrounding streets.

The park occupies one block bounded by E. Edgar and Roanoke Streets and 10th Avenue E. and Broadway E., just northeast of the State Route 520 and Interstate 5 junction. It is a small 2.2-acre (0.89 ha) green space, so a visit takes little time and fits easily into a walk between North Capitol Hill and Portage Bay.
