The Hillcrest Park Archway in Clovis, New Mexico is an archway over a roadway entering Hillcrest Park which was built from 1939 to 1940. It was a Works Progress Administration project. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.

"Improved by the Works Progress Administration" and "1935" show on a photographed plaque on the archway; it seems that date refers to WPA improvements to the Hillcrest Park, not the archway itself.[1]
