About this park
A fenced off-leash yard inside Riverview Park on Pittsburgh's North Side, the hilltop neighborhood park best known for the Allegheny Observatory above it. The run is a wooded rectangle with community chairs, bowls, and balls left for shared use, wrapped in a wood-post and wire fence that regulars note is on the low side.

💡
Before you go
The fence is about five feet tall with a small gap at the bottom of the gate, so dedicated diggers and escape artists aren't the best fit. Weekday mornings are the quietest window.
