Dog-Friendly Parks in Manhattan

Chelsea Waterside Dog Park

Chelsea Waterside Dog Park, located at 11th Ave and W. 23rd Street in Chelsea, is a favorite spot for pups and their owners. The park has fun play mounds that give dogs new vantage points to explore, and dogs of all sizes are welcome. Pet owners can relax in the shade during warmer months while their dogs run around. This dog-friendly park in NYC is also expanding its dog run, which already has a double-gated safety vestibule and secure fencing. Starting in mid-April, fresh running water will be available, and there are plenty of benches and trash cans to make your visit easy and comfortable.For more information call (212) 757-0981 or email info@hudsonriverpark.org
