Brightwood Park is a small neighborhood in Northwest Washington, D.C. in the USA. It is bounded by Georgia Avenue NW to the west, Missouri Avenue to the northeast, Kennedy Street NW to the south.

Brightwood Park is largely characterized by rowhouses, detached and semi-detached houses, and small neighborhood businesses. Being small and similar in name to the adjacent Brightwood neighborhood, Brightwood Park is sometimes mistaken for a part of Brightwood. It is also sometimes thought to be part of Petworth, the neighborhood to the south, and Manor Park, the neighborhood to the north.
