High View Park (also known as "Halls Hill") is a neighborhood in Arlington, Virginia. Its approximate borders are Lee Highway to the north, North George Mason Drive to the west, Slater Park to the east. The southern boundary is a wall, built in the 1930's to separate it from the white neighborhood of Woodlawn Park (now Waycroft-Woodlawn).

Prior to the Civil War, the area was owned by a slaveholder named Bazil Hall. After the war, Hall sold much of the property to freed slaves. The area was later merged with an adjacent area known as High View Park

The first four black students to integrate public schools in Virginia were residents of High View Park, attending the formerly all-white H-B Woodlawn in February of 1959. Douglas E. Moore served as pastor of the Calloway Church in High View Park for three years
