West Roxbury Parkway, Historic parkway between Brookline and Boston, United States.

West Roxbury Parkway extends 2.6 miles through residential neighborhoods, connecting Washington Street to Horace James Circle at Chestnut Hill.

The construction of the parkway began in 1919, with the initial section linking Washington Street to Belgrade Avenue completed during the first phase.

The parkway design represents early 20th-century urban planning principles, integrating transportation infrastructure with natural landscape elements.

Four rotary intersections regulate traffic flow along the parkway, facilitating connections with major cross streets and neighboring communities.

The roadway connects two nature areas, linking Stony Brook Reservation to Hammond Pond Reservation through the Hammond Pond Parkway system.
