More Police need to be out there because there were some people with Mental illness out there in the early morning hours and they followed me. I had another non-verbal person with mental illness start screaming and threatening me, when I was at the bus stop. I will never go to the Christiana emergency room again because I am a heart patient, had a COVID diagnosis and was wearing a back brace. They kept trying to send me into public areas with COVID but didn't want to quarantine me. They threw me in the cold and the black lady security guard was threatening to get violent with me and I was not threatening her at all. They accused me of stealing and I'm an educator. I was sitting with a back brace on because of a recent car accident unable to walk correctly or stand up because my back is out and they did that to an educator. I've been serving this area since 2005, as an educator and the disrespect was terrible but they are going to hear from anyone I can let know about this particular situation. Signed...

Not very astetically pleasing, no restaraunts or bars close by. There is 1 regular illegally operating and parking food truck that loves to block Market St. between 10th and 11th. You might just get lucky if your really hungry as every now and again every food truck in Wilmington decides to park in the square and around lunch this attracts a ton of workers from the local buildings. For the most part there are some nice people around but you never know and you probably should keep a safe distance away from anyone within reach. The square has some entertainment every so often and is for the most part the central hub for any event going on within the downtown cooridore. I must say it was a wise idea for Dart to remove Rodney Square as the main downtown hub and spread out the different bus pickup locations a few blocks in every direction. By doing this they have elevated a lot of congestion and stagnant lingerors in the area and this appears to have made it a more tolerable and safe environment...

First time I got there I was absolutely lost, bus drivers hadn't 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, we'll think about going round and round first from Philly's 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 it's worth. Long story short my batteries couldn't hold out and I could not use my google services which is quite good if I...

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 Eatery's. 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 City's #1 priority!

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.

The food looked amazing at every single stand! I had the big fish platter and it was tops! I can't 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
