About this park

This is a small fenced off-leash area on Fort Duquesne Boulevard, wedged near a three-way intersection with a view over the Allegheny. The grass is long gone, so it's mostly dirt and mulch, and reviewers are split between glad-it-exists and let-down by the size.

High-energy

Before you go

Bring your own water, there's no fountain, and skip it if you're expecting a real park rather than a place to burn off energy between errands. Parking is the catch downtown, so plan the approach before you cross traffic with a dog.
