Dog Park Review: Union Square, NYC
Address:
West 15th St. and Union Square West
Pros:
- central location
- pebble/gravel “flooring”: gentler on dog paws, not as dusty as dirt
- uncrowded during the am
Cons:
- Maintenance could be improved since it constantly smells like urine
- Smaller than other nearby dog parks
In a bind, Union Square dog park gets the job done. Its especially convenient because of its location which is close to Petco, Barnes and Nobles, and Mondays, Wednesday, Fridays/Saturdays, we can pick up some produce from the farmers market while getting in some exercise. From my experience the crowd is mixed, fairly reserved and generally not as social (humans) as other dog parks…these all being very good things, imo
