Originally named Tatnall Street Playground in 1907, this park stands across the street from the home at 2311 Tatnall Street where singer-songwriter Bob Marley lived with his mother in 1966. While there, he used the alias "Donald Marley" and worked as a lab assistant at DuPont and on the assembly line at the nearby Chrysler plant, among other jobs, to raise money to start his own record label in Jamaica. In 2014, the park was renamed One Love Park to honor Marley's time in Delaware, taking its name from his 1977 hit song with The Wailers, "One Love/People Get Ready."
