Harbor Park is a light rail station on the Tide Light Rail line in Norfolk, Virginia, U.S., which opened in August 2011. Harbor Park Station is situated in downtown Norfolk along Park Avenue adjacent to Harbor Park stadium.[1]

The light rail station formed the first part of a planned intermodal public transport hub for Norfolk, which is intended to link together bus, light rail, commuter rail and ferry services. [2] In December 2012, a new Amtrak station opened adjacent to the station with service to Richmond, Washington, and the entire Northeast Corridor to Boston.
