History
Wallenberg Forest Park Off Leash Dog Area is part of a larger public park in the Bronx, New York City.
Originally known as the Brooklyn Forest, the area was envisioned in the mid-19th century as a public green space.
The park was designed by the landscape architecture firm Olmsted, Olmsted & Eliot, featuring a curved roadway integrated into the natural landscape.
Land acquisition involved approximately 60 landowners and multiple public hearings. While some opposition was led by Fred Cocheu, legal rulings ultimately permitted the park’s development.
Today, the park is accessible from Palisade Avenue, Douglas Avenue, and West 235th Street, and it remains open 24 hours a day.
