Rufus King Park
Beschreibung
Rufus King Park is a delightful green space in the heart of Jamaica, Queens. Once part of the estate of Rufus King, a lawyer and leading anti-slavery politician as well an original signer of the US Constitution, it now has a soccer field, basketball and handball courts, and a children's playground, plus plenty of quiet lawns and gardens. The main attraction is the King Manor Museum, a handsome Georgian and Federal-style structure that was once King’s home.
