Sara Delano Roosevelt Park is a public park in Manhattan, New York City. The 7.8-acre (32,000 meters square) park was named after Sara Roosevelt, the mother of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Sara Delano Roosevelt Park is long and narrow. It covers an area between East Houston Street on the Lower East Side and Canal Street in Chinatown. Delancey St and Grand St cut across the park. Hester St also crosses the park, though in the form of a pedestrian mall.
