Gordon Park is a 122-acre outdoor recreation area bordering Lake Erie in Cleveland, Ohio.

The lakefront park was originally the private estate of mining magnate and millionaire philanthropist William J. Gordon, who landscaped the property with gravel paths, bridges, and wooded groves. Gordon stipulated that it would become a public park at the time of his death, and after he died in 1892 the City of Cleveland received the title. The following year, Gordon Park opened as a city playground with facilities for fishing, boating, bathing, and picnicking. Eventually it was joined to neighboring Rockefeller Park and Wade Park by a series of bridges.
