Chelsea Waterside Dog Run

Pretty awesome dog park in Manhattan. It is pretty dope that there is a closed pace for dogs so that they can run and jump all around. In this places doggies can get good excercising and and file their nails pretty nicely with the cement.

Great, clean, friendly, spacious, well-​utilized, community dog run. Especially lovely on weekend afternoons but also solid on weekday mornings before working hours (seems like a crowd of regulars) and weekday afternoons /​early evenings. Lots of dogs from all range of sizes running around and playing together. Owners generally seem attentive to dogs behavior without being paranoid. It’s a lovely space and responsibly maintained in regard to both upkeep and doggie play. Love it!

Not big at all but its better than nothing.
Things it has going for it:
— Has water for dogs, but you have to bring water during late fall, winter and early spring since city shuts water off
— Adequate seating for dog owners
— Plenty of shade during the summer
— Area to hose off your dog
— Has little hills and rocks for dogs to climb on
— Good fencing
Things it has against it:
— Could be a lot bigger
— No bathrooms near run for humans
— Parking (Its the same as all other dog runs in Manhattan for the most part)
— This run is all concrete/​asphalt so it may get hot during the summer
— No poop bags
— No separate large dog & small dog runs
— Not exactly that clean
— Very noisy with 12^th Ave right next to run
This run is rather small. Can’t see it being able to hold many dogs at one time. Its all concrete construction feels a little too austere for my taste.
