Dog Run 105 is a Riverside Park Conservancy affiliate and Park User Group that was formed in the early 2000s by concerned dog owners. Together they transformed the dog run from an eyesore into a functioning and beautiful space for dogs to play off-leash.

In 2012, after a decade of heavy use, the group once again set out to raise funds for much-needed repairs. Working closely with the Conservancy and the NYC Parks Department, much of the renovation was completed.

Today the Park User Group continues to advocate for the space, and welcomes new members! If you are interested in getting involved, email [email protected].
