Riverview Park was an amusement park in Chicago, Illinois which operated from 1904 to 1967. It was located on 74 acres (0.3 km²) in the area around Belmont and Western Avenues in the North Center community area and neighborhood on Chicago's north side.

Riverview was most known for The Bobs rollercoaster. Another roller coaster at the park was the Jetsream.

The former grounds are now home to Riverview Plaza shopping center, the Belmont District Police Station, and DeVry Institute of Technology. A sculpture entitled "Riverview" by local artist Jerry Peart (1980) stands in front of the police station.

Memorabilia from the park is now considered to be quite valuable.
