History

Also known as Bell Street Dog Park, this park is serving as a pilot for mixed use. During the hours of 11AM and 1PM, the gates remain open and all dogs must be on leashes to accommodate humans who would like to enjoy the park without dogs. Outside of this window, dogs are allowed off-leash. Amenities include seasonal water for dogs, benches and walking paths.
