Stuart Park is an inner suburb of the city of Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia.

[4] This area derived its name as part of Parap after the Australian Army had left in 1946 and a number of Sidney William hutments remained.

[5] When Administrator Driver was making the first moves towards local government, local Progress Associations were set up, including Stuart Park in 1950.

It is believed that the park or camp area, formerly part of Parap, got its name as a separate unit from the park/camp area near the Stuart Highway which in turn is named after Scottish explorer John McDouall Stuart.

Gothenburg Crescent in Stuart Park was named after the ill-fated SS Gothenburg, which left Darwin in February 1875 and sank a few days later off the North Queensland coast with the loss of approximately 102 lives.
