    Quite a nice and active and park. The small and big dog runs have quite a few pups to keep yours company. The turf fields are great for organized sports. Unfortunately, the lights didn’t go on when my group had a permit for the fields. There was no one to contact and we all had to go home

    This is a great Park that is used primarily for local sporting events. My son has been going there for years for his flag football games. It's convenient to get to and the field is large enough for multiple games to be played on it.

    Good park. Has a children's play area, a baseball feild, and a dog park. This is the best dog park in the area. There is a small dog park and a large dog park. They have running hose water for the dogs during the summer, but not during the winter. There are two plastic dog pools. The dog park is asphalt with lots of shade. There are a lot of benches and friendly people. There are horse stalls across the street that attract a lot of flys during the summer. There are a few homeless people that hang out near the park. The park has tables for eating and playing chess. There is a track around the park but not great for running as there are many children in the park. The restrooms here are super dirty and gross.

    My favorite dog park in the area. I love the concrete ground, not like other dog par., it's not mud, pebble or grass. Public restroom is small and dirty.

    I love taking my granddaughter to this park whenever I'm in New York. It's one of her favorite places to go! The playground is lovely, with swings, little horses, a splash pad, slides, and climbing structures. However, the public restroom is small and dirty, which is a disappointment.

    We bring our dog almost daily. Two sides for small and large dogs. Water and dishes on both sides. People are good about cleaning up after their dogs.

    Good good! It was very open with 2 soccer nets. It’s just far away from any subway and the busses take 1 hour runs

    It was incredible to meet my peeps on the 54th street metal bleachers, adjacent to the ball field. It's changed over the years for the better. Back in the 80's, it was a notorious crack park. Violent and wild. Well, at least not in the day time. But anyways, it's a great park now, family oriented, and no crackheads. At least l think not. Enjoy the park!

    Beautiful and clean public park. Loved the dog park. Therapy!

  • 5/5 Luke B. 1 year ago on Google
    A great community space, a small community garden and excellent sporting facilities. A great place to stop to kick a ball around, play a round of tennis, or just enjoy some time out from the busy City Life.

  • 5/5 Oscar V. 4 years ago on Google
    It is a great dog park. They have a larger dog and a small dog section. It's safe and clean.

    Love love this park they have a racket n tennis place plus basketball barbecue n baseball etc. There is so much to do n see this park is excellent during the summer for picnics or parties of whatever the sort.

  • 4/5 Ryan B. 9 months ago on Google
    2 areas. One for large dogs, one for smaller dogs. A lot of dog owners are not very vigilant. If your dog needs special attention, or is either very young or very old, stay sharp.

  • 5/5 Double G. 10 months ago on Google
    Has playground, basketball courts, restrooms, and turf to play field sports on really nice place dog friendly to

  • 1/5 Angel A. 3 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    Said closes at 1am online but they close at 930 if there's no permit paid games - pretty lame - 2/10

  • 5/5 Eugene L. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a hidden gem in the middle of concrete. I spent a lovely few hours here. There's plenty of room, a dog section, a kid section and a huge field. Will definitely be back.

    Thank you to all on both sides of the DeWitt foundation { again on either side } for your everything from a room or land or bodies of water

  • 4/5 Patricia V. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 GabrielaV V. 2 years ago on Google
    The park had 2 sections which was great. One side for dogs under 20lbs and the other side for over 20. It was great to be able to see shy dogs like mine on one side without feeling intimidated by bigger dogs.

  • 4/5 Peter S. 2 years ago on Google
    Fun dog park. Pretty flat but expansive. Dogs can run and tire themselves out. Ballfields, etc. Full city block, it's a big park.

  • 4/5 dan73nyc A. 1 year ago on Google
    It is in a remote area of Hell's Kitchen that has been gentrifying for the last 20 years. Clean. Very pet friendly. Especially for dog owners. It has a large baseball field, too! Subways Restaurant nearby. A lot of car dealers nearby.

    DeWitt Clinton park is a small, compact park. Small, yes. But it exudes charm and has an immensely friendly atmosphere Take a slow walk around the park and stop and take a seat on one of the many benches to relax and take a breather. Watch the people walking with their dogs and children. A lovely little park, that was the first community garden in the city. Which is a lovely little piece of history.

  • 5/5 Esthela H. 2 years ago on Google
    It's always a pleasure to stop by the view is amazing

  • 5/5 Jorge “Eyton” C. 1 year ago on Google
    Went there on NYE with my friend and it Interesting walking around at night it was peaceful They do have a public bathroom however it closes at 4pm but it does make sense

  • 5/5 Nelson M. 1 year ago on Google
    I love the park. I saw several teams playing softball, children in the playground, dogs enjoying the dog park as well as people practicing tennis.

  • 4/5 Jia S. 1 year ago on Google
    A nice diverse park by the highway. Plenty of play areas for soccer, baseball, basketball, handball, kids etc. A bit sketchy at times, good that pickleball area is away from the handball courts.

  • 5/5 M S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great soccer field. 2 - 2 tie... I'll take it!

  • 4/5 Keith S. 1 year ago on Google
    The park's amenities are great. The astro turf field is ideal for running on a soft surface. But, the mens bathroom was filthy. The park staff did a good job cleaning the bathroom.

  • 5/5 monique d. 1 year ago on Google
    Super cool park. Drove from upstate and took my little ones here because they been in the car for some hours. There's bathrooms here and a sprinkler which was nice. Def coming back.

  • 5/5 Marie P. 1 year ago on Google
    Granted upkeep could be better but it's not a deal breaker nor does it merit 1 less star. Love this playground. Kids always have a blast when I bring them here. Splash pad, swings and little horses, the slide/jungle gyms are great. Not to mention the abundance of trees, which means tons of shade.

  • 5/5 Master M. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing soccer pitch overlooking a quite busy West End road but the area is massive for all recreation sports and it is a good place for lessons.
