Stephen A. Rudd (1874-1936), a lifelong resident of Brooklyn, is the namesake of this playground, located on Bushwick Avenue between Aberdeen and Granite Streets. From the time of his law school graduation to his death in 1936, Rudd shared his talents with the community that shaped him. An alumnus of Brooklyn Law School and St. Lawrence University, Rudd married his constant companion Elizabeth Lindsay in 1895.
