Located off S Boulevard in between E 4th and E 5th streets, Stephenson Park is the oldest urban city park in Edmond. Originally named South Park, it was created in 1892 just a few years after the Land Run and establishment of the township of Edmond. In 1934 the park was renamed after City Manger Fred M. Stephenson. It is a small park at 3.4 acres and includes trees, park benches and Rocket ship themed children's playground installed in more recent years that is great for children. There is a fair amount of open grass for pets to enjoy.There are also a couple of heritage attractions at Stephenson Park including the old early 20th-century Rodkey House, a Victorian residence that was restored and relocated here in 2016. On the east side of the park, you will find the old National Guard Armoury that has housed the Edmond Historical Society, a small museum to Edmond's history since 1983.
