The Dr. John Walter Parker Sr. House is a historic house at 1405 South Alabama Street in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. It is a single-story brick building, with a complex gabled roof line and a porch that curves from the front around to the left side. Built in 1909-10, it is believed to be one of the first brick houses in the community to be built for, and owned by, an African-American. John Walker Parker, for whom it was built, was a dentist who opened his practice in Pine Bluff in 1905.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.[1]
