Keystone Park is a former baseball ground located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[1] The ground was home to the Philadelphia Keystones of the Union Association in 1884.

The location of the ballpark was on the east side of Broad Street and Moore Street.[1]

The field was the original grounds of the Forepaugh Circus.(Rich Westcott, Philadelphia's Old Ballparks, Temple University Press, 1996, p. 6.) Not to be confused with the later Forepaugh Park.
