My 1st time attending the Clifford Brown Jazz Festival (a free event) in Wilmington, DE. Weather was great also. A very nice adult affair. Would like to see more food vendors and other vendors also. You definitely want to bring your own lawn chair and cooler. So worth attending.

Its getting better now that they did a 9 million dollar reconstruction. Its a place to catch some dart buses.

Nice downtown park, surrounded by bus stops so getting to or from is always easy. Big open grassy field and there is good dining in the area, so pick something up and make it a picnic. Food trucks on Wednesdays make this an easy spot for a nice lunch.

The food looked amazing at every single stand! I had the big fish platter and it was tops! I cant remember the name of the stand but it was a young fella and his dad. I will be returning today! I wish they were oh here all the time not just during the Jazz Festival LOL

Better remove the pictures of the statue before some anarchist hacks google maps and does it for you

Good place to relax and eat lunch. Very quiet.

We had a blast at the jazz festival Rodney square is good for food truck rallies and other things that they have every once in awhile

There could be better signage for passengers to know where to catch which bus. With the surrounding road construction, that should have been automatic. Theyre now renovating the inner circle and that appears it will b very nice. Ill update after thats completed. My guess is Spring 2020.

Nice place to take a walk and view the city.

The Clifford Brown Jazz Festival was awesome. So much talent. Friday was rained out but Saturday sizzles.

Very beautiful place. Farmers Market during the Summer too! Every Wednesday until October so hurry over soon!

The streets were lit up by the luminous twinkle lights (trees wrapped w/ clear colored lights) that lit your path as we strolled down the sidewalk across from the food center by the park, dont know the name of the pizza place..I would go back for the pizza alone. Great night!

I attended the Clifford Brown Jazz Festival and I must say it was an enjoyable evening. The crowd was great as there were no major incidents since folks had beach chairs and small tables set up for their food and drinks. Thos was my first time ever being at Rodney as Ive driven past it several times, but now I can see why this is a popular spot. I would definitely go back for an event.

Nice venue for a concert. Lots of great food trucks. Bring your own sports chairs for an event. On normal workdays there are usually enough places to sit and enjoy people watching.

Under construction, all you can do is drive by or walk around it on the sidewalk

.It was fine, I was only there a few minutes until my bus came. There is a police officer sitting there now and I think that is a very good idea. It is a lot better than when I used to drop my son off there in 1982.

They took away the benches. Only want certain people to be in the park. I thought it was a public park. All who pay taxes should be able to enjoy it.

Always something cool happening on Wednesday afternoon with music and a Farmers Market with lots of Great Hot Food available. My favorite spot to sit and relax in Wilmington and is very clean for an open air meeting space/center of & heart of the city.

Rodney Square is for every history lover. From the iconic Caesar Rodney monument to the amazing history of the city of Wilmington. Today its the destination for protests and demonstrations in the new civil rights movement. Summer brings a farmers market and food trucks on Wednesdays and the Clifford Brown jazz fest!

Nice place️

Lots of construction but def improving their appearance! The live music is a wonderful addition.

This is a popular place in downtown Wilmington. Many of the buses come here, and it is across the street from the Wilmington Library. There are plenty of places to eat, and there are other business nearby (banks, hotels, restaurants, entertainment venues, etc).

Empty place. Under construction

You seems to be quite a bit of construction going on hes really changed a good fit of Rodney Square it seemed kind of bleak actually, not having the music festivals are such that they have there or the food festivals just takes away from what Rodney square has been in the past for me but hopefully better in the future

Had a Great time at the annual Earth day celebration. Gathering information for how I can help with keeping the Earth Green. Best of all its free! Come and join us next year!

It a convience for catching buss but anoying from the beggers

It was the Clifford Brown jazz fest. I bought a beautiful set of earnings. Lots to peruse, lots to eat, and great music!!

It was nice what the city of Wilmington did for the kids. Good food and good vibes!

Pretty green space in the heart of the city, sort of in a similarish feel to Bryant Park in New York (obviously not the same but the general idea of green space and cement surrounded by tall buildings and pretty old buildings) needs some work (fountain doesn’t work, some cracks in cement, etc) but they’re about to do a huge renovation so it’ll be absolutely gorgeous in a year or two. Also has a very pretty statue of Caesar Rodney in front of the Hotel DuPont.

I enjoyed myself. Participated at the Clifford Brown Jazz festival. Had a great relief. No trouble.

Rodney Square might not be the square it is being claimed to be. But it is historical. There is nice grass and trees. There is a Public Library standing there since 1922, and the Wilmington Trust among others.Buses pick and drop passengers right by the Square. There is a road named King Av running by it, and 10th Street and 11th Street on opposite sides of the Square.There is word that some people may ask you for money to board the bus. In summer expect a food display complimented by ice cream trucks.In general the area is kept clean. The people using buses have a waiting shade that is not an all weather area. But you can sit on the provided benches.Remember the keyword here is Rodney Square is historic.

They are in the middle of some sort of renovation Im sure that it will be nice when its done.

To many nasty people walking around spitting all over the sidewalks making it gross to walk in the area. Yuck

Its a great meeting place and you can board most buses from there

So wide open but with no where to take cover from rain

Totally different without the statue

Always have a good time at the Jazz Festival this year was kind of hard to hear the music in the back I mean all way back by the library you could barely hear the music but still had a good time thank you.

Under major rehab in late 2019. More accessibility and a spray fountain expected next year!

Very relaxing place to set eat and enjoy the outside.

Great to bring your dog here, nice grass. Some city people might try asking you for money to catch the bus since the bus stop is write on the square. Sometimes events happen here, it’s great to have the farmers market every Wednesday! Lots of food trucks and vendors come.

A victim of gentrification. Better for tourists, a little weak, now, for locals. Once a hub to acquire a bus to anywhere in Delaware, just about, but now older ladies and the like have to download maps to get around! This is from an exaggerated sense of fear because of an incongruous crime statistic that has nothing to do with the area. Spectacular events there like the jazz festival, farmers markets, and free Brian McKnight concerts pull it back up to 3 stars.

Having a great time at the Clifford Brown Jazz Fest. Beautiful weather and good fish from Farmers Famous Fish Truck.

Great place for Clifford Brown Jazz Festival in the month of June! Safe the police patrol the area and walk through keeping us patrons safe! The best event of the year. I await patiently for it!

Great place for a concert like the Clifford Brown Jazz Festival. Good vibes and not that big-city overwhelming crowd feel that causes claustrophobia.

Rodney Square is the iconic place in Wilmington. Week days sometimes has a selection of food trucks to choose from. They have a really nice tree lighting and caroling on the square.

Its a very clean, fun meeting place for family and friends before a day/night on the town.

Great music as always, cannot beat the best free concert in the USA

Cant wait to see the new look!

The Clifford Brown Jazz Festival every June. The largest free jazz festival on the east coast.

It is a awesome place to have a parade

Ive been in Dware for years n the bus location was so convenient now its a mess ur willing to spend 7-8mil on renovations but want make affordable housing instead u bring more condos n lofts ur homeless cant afford where r the priorities? I/we pay taxes to !!!!!

Attended Clifford Brown Jazz fest which was a great time on Wednesday & Thursday.

Theyre making Rodney Square a safer place

It was nice in location to the hotel I was in. I wish it had more things going on.

I love Downtown Wilmington. This was a perfect place to walk my little dog and talk to the friendly locals

My favorite part of todays expierence was afte 9 pm when the scumbag driving the 8 bus slammed the door in my face and peeled out from the bus stop I sat at for 20 minutes.Go to hell Dart bus guy the stopped at 9th st at 915 pm.

I passed by this place when visiting the library. Its a nice square in the city to relax.

The heart of the city of wilmington...sit in the park and enjoy the sounds of the busy city and view of high buldings that surrounds it

I love to see my people together like that God

I try to avoid this place mainly cause of the people always asking for money, cigarettes, do you wanna buy my bus pass, not to mention the drug activity. Its not all bad they have alot of different events going on throughout the months.

Every Wednesday Rodney Square turns into food truck alley. There are about 15 trucks along with produce vendors , fresh flowers. Great bbq ,jewlery sales and baked goods. They are serving hungry people from 10 til 2. Check it out. Oh almost forgot the notorius fresh strawberry lemonade from the wildwich food truck.

Getting ready for the jazz festival I love it,great music and food

Its just an open green type space. Events like farmers market, Clifford Brown jazz festivals and random one time events happen here. It is also somewhat of an unofficial bus hub in the sense that a majority of all bus pick ups, drop offs and transfers happen at Rodney square or within three blocks of it. Its surrounded by banks, the library, a couple schools are within walking distance and its right next to the equivalent of a small town main street but in our case its called market street. I guess you can say its almost like an unofficial town center/center city.

It has changed so much here but looks nice here

The square has all kinds of great music and. Festivals check it out

I went to the citys Jazz Festival at Rodney Square it was very delightful.

This is where I grew up and always played since I was younger me coming back to visit its still as beautiful as I remeber

Things SURE Have changed there since 2012. Sum for the good, Sum for the Worst. But if Nothing Changes,, NUFFIN CHANGES!!

Rodney Square is a Hub to connect to Delawars1st Dart Buses. The beautiful Park is a part of Wilmingtons Iconic History. Well groomed and, has easy access to surrounding Financial Institutions, Hotels, Shopping, and Eaterys.Both night and day is Patrolled by Wilmingtons Best! Men and Women in Blue on foot no less! Good or Bad weather they make their presence known. So you feel comfortable while strolling downtown! Thank you to the Safty Ambassadors as well! Always ready to lend a hand, Or answer your every question. Thank you City of Wilmington! Where you make your citizens the Citys #1 priority!

There is nothing going on in Rodney Square these days. Its under renovation along with many of the streets of Downtiwn Wilmington.

A nice place to wait for the bus most of the time

Great place

Free nice area to walk and learn a bit of local history

Has been receiving some really nice updates over the past year or so.

Great burger and fries. The service was also very good.

Pretty cool historic spot. Nice restaurants and art places to visit

Jazz festival is this weekend. Cone on out everyone.

The square host in summer jazz event and is in the heart of Wilmington De business offices.

Nice greenspace but bring back the historical fountains!

Interesting....great for people watching.

It use to be my favorite. But now its not. Bring back the bus stops.

Very quiet and quick access

I cant stand Rodney Square. In one of the most public hubs in Wilmington, its uncomfortable to wait there for any period of time with how many drug addicts and homeless people flock to it. Many drug dealers waiting across the library so they can set up drug deals.

Pizza was delicious, fast, great prices, and a good staff. Loved it.

I must have come on a bad day because Caesar Rodney was too drunk to ride into Philadelphia to sign the Declaration of Independence. I also note that Rodney Square is not actually square but more rectangular. I looked for the manager to complain about this deliberate deception the people treated me like I was insane.

Clifford Brown Jazz Festival always great

It was peaceful, pleasant and clean

Historic landmark in downtown Wilmington,near the Hotel DuPont,the Playhouse,the Wilmington Library and the old courthouse.

Such a beautiful place. Sits right in the middle of the city. This is where every bus comes. It can be dangerous here at night. There are even places to charge your phone here outside. Banks, food , beauty stores a library and etc are in this area.

Ummmm....... There is a lot of crack heads there other than that its good

First time I got there I was absolutely lost, bus drivers hadnt the faintest idea how to help me so I asked the homeless people on the street and believe me they are much more expensive than even the police when it comes to giving directions. They pointed me to a stop on Rodney square to pick a bus to my destination in Beard, Delaware. If you wanted to know why I never called customer service, well think about going round and round first from Phillys septa service, you will soon like me kill you batteries in the process and just relate to people. They just might need a quarter for all its worth.Long story short my batteries couldnt hold out and I could not use my google services which is quite good if I may point out.

Nice park. Food trucked. Good places to eat.

Great time at Clifford brown jazz fest

Bus area is policed and safe and also clean

Happy about the changes and updates made throughout the years

Nice place to visit you can take public transportation to almost every where

Its not the same as it was when i was a child growing up in and around wilmington

This used to be the hub for most of the bus traffick in Wilmington. They said they changed that to keep undesirables from hanging out there all the time. The undesirables stayed, and now catching a bus is like solving a puzzle. Spring through fall, there is a different food truck every week day. They have a small farmers market on Wednesdays. They also host occasional events here. These things bring the stars up from a 2 or a 1. The construction on the hotel DuPont across the street seems like its never going to end, and its an eyesore. Its mostly something you just pass through, not really a destination.

Because u can the bus where needs to go

The best place to visit especially in the summer. Every weekend there is something happening usually having to do with music for fairs. And dont forget the best part everythings free!
