Located east of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, or BQE, between Broadway and South 5th Street, this park is located directly between two other parks, Rodney Park North and Rodney Park South, that all take their names from nearby Rodney Street. Rodney Street, in turn, honors American patriot and statesman, Caesar Rodney (1728-1784).
