But don't expect the dog poop-bag dispenser to be full or get replenished. Bring your own or use the shovel which will further deplete the gravel one...

It's a busy place at times, but outside of rush-hour(s) you can really hear plenty of birds chirping pleasantly! The cool breeze off the Hudson reaches you there, up on the little hill on which the park sits - and should you fall asleep, some happenings in the dog park can...
