Hurt Park Neighborhood

The railroad industry plays a crucial role in the Roanoke, Virginia, community of Hurt Park. In the early 20th century, the central Roanoke community was developed to be the home for railroad executive and wealthy citizens.

Today, the Norfolk Southern Railroad rail yard and tracks serves as its northern border. The executives have long since moved from this region; however, the rail yard is still an important source of income and employment in the region.

The community is still vibrant. While it has gone through transformations, the historical homes are still in use. Many of these homes are near vital businesses, schools, and organizations located between the railroad yard, tracks, and Roanoke River (its southern border).

Many important attractions can be found on Salam Avenue. This street – in particular, two blocks between Westview Avenue and 16th Street – contain important centers. These are Welford Hurt Park, Hurt Park Elementary School, Hurt Park Teen Health and Clinic, and Hurt Park Housing Development.

Salam Avenue is primarily a residential street that stretches the distance of the community. It connects in the west to Hurt Park’s western border of Boulevard Street and reaches a few blocks away from Highway 221 and Interstate 581 in the east. The eastern border is not well defined. 2nd Street is often considered that border.

The eastern side of this community has two notable attractions. Near the region where the railroad tracks narrows down to two tracks, one can find the Virginia Museum-Transportation on Norfolk Avenue, and the Science Museum of Western Virginia and Hopkins Planetarium on Market Square near Campbell Avenue.

Other notable places near this community are Hotel Conference Center and Jefferson College of Health. These two establishments are on the other side of the railroad tracks near its eastern border.
