Parkway Park is a neighbourhood in College Ward in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is bounded to the north by the Queensway, to the west by Cobden Road, to the south by Baseline Road and to the east by Pinecrest Creek and the OC Transpo Transitway. Developed during the late 1950s and early 1960s along with the nearby neighbourhoods of Kenson Park, Queensway Terrace North and South, Bel-Air Park and Ridgeview. The community is mostly middle class. In the Iris, Cobden and Elmira areas there are community housing projects. To the west of the projects is a small shopping strip on Cobden.
