'''Crestview Park''' is a small neighborhood park in [[North Little Rock, Arkansas]]. It is roughly bounded by Cherry Hill Drive, Crestview Drive, and the westbound onramp to [[Interstate 40]] from [[Arkansas Highway 107]]. The park, set on a steeply sloping parcel, has no major amenities, and was established for passive recreational uses of the nearby population. The park is notable for the presence of two naturalistic sculptures by [[Dionicio Rodriguez]] that were installed c. 1933. One is a footbridge that appears to have been fashioned out of a fallen tree, and the other is rustic shelter, one of Rodriguez' more unusual works.<ref name=NRHP>{{cite web|url=http://www.arkansaspreservation.com/National-Register-Listings/PDF/PU9771.nr.pdf|title=NRHP nomination for Crestview Park|publisher=Arkansas Preservation|accessdate=2015-05-31}}</ref>
