The two islands were formerly separated, with Randall's Island to the north of Wards Island. The channel between them, Little Hell Gate, was infilled by the early 1960s. A third, smaller island, Sunken Meadow Island, was located east of Randall's Island and was connected to it in 1955.
The island had a population of 1,648 living on 2.09 square kilometers in 2010. Most of the island is parkland, spanning a total of 432.69 acres , and managed by Randall's Island Park Alliance. The park offers athletic fields, a driving range, greenways, playgrounds and picnic grounds.

Outside of these institutions, there is no residential housing for the general public on the island.
