Manor Park is an upper middle-class neighbourhood of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada. The main entrance to the neighbourhood is from the east on Portland Street (Route 207). A secondary entrance, from the west, is by way of Celtic Avenue, rising from the low-lying area around Lake Banook.
Within this neighbourhood is Brownlow Park, one of the Dartmouth's local parks. The park, named for Dan Brownlow, a former Mayor of Dartmouth, includes 2 tennis courts, a basketball court, a soccer field, a children's playground, and a pathway for joggers.
