It's not a huge park, but it's perfectly adequate. So far it's been pretty hit or miss whether there are other dogs here or not. Probably 50% of the time we're the only ones here, but there have been times when there were nine other dogs... My rating would definitely go up if more people were aware that this park exists and brought their dogs... so come out and play!

The other part is, it is sparsely attended. If your objective is for your dog to play with other dogs, this is not the place. On the positive side, it is very large and it does have some very nice features like a small dog section that is quite sizable. I would say if you can stand the noise and just want a place for your dog to run, it's five stars.

From the Park & Rec Dept website: More than just "room to roam"…read more To use the 2.5 acre dog park: Owners must register their dogs and provide proof of their dog's immunization records to the Parks & Recreation office. Owners then receive a swipe card for access to the park. I take "Angus": our Australian Shepherd (a 21/2 year old rescue) here on a daily basis. He's a little hyper and still adjusting, so I use the park so he can get up in the morning and run himself silly chasing the pedestrian and bike traffic that runs parallel to the Dog Park. My wife usually takes him in the near dusk time to allow him to unwind for the evening and he's been socializing with the other dogs. While many owners let the dogs run "free" not everyone should; unless they know their dog's temperament around other animals and people. While this is a good learning experience for him; my wife and I sometimes have to corral him in the smaller dog area when he's wanting to herd other dogs and not be social. It's a great park and while they've an agility course in the large dog side of the park, it's missing a jump bar that was damaged sometime after the opening. The smaller dog area has a few agility items and we usually take Angus there to practice the smaller obsticle course.

Serra Sculpture Park is located west of Citygarden and complements it well. Together, Serra…read moreSculpture Park and Citygarden offer two distinct public art experiences: one centered around a single large-scale sculpture, the other featuring a diverse collection of 29 works by a variety of internationally renowned artists. Serra Sculpture Park is devoted to a single monumental work: Twain by Richard Serra, installed in 1982. Unlike a traditional sculpture that is meant to be viewed from a distance, Twain is intended to be experienced from within. Designed specifically for this location, Twain interacts with its surroundings and with the movement of each visitor. Weighing 269 tons, the sculpture is constructed from eight weathering (COR-TEN) steel plates that form three massive walls arranged in a subtly distorted triangular configuration. The sculpture invites each visitor to walk inside, where the changing perspectives, shifting acoustics, towering weathering steel walls, and framed views toward the historic Old Courthouse, with its French Second Empire-style architecture and distinctive mansard roof, create an immersive experience. Some visitors find it meditative, while for others it feels almost transcendental. Twain has become one of St. Louis' most significant and discussed works of public art. It is widely regarded as one of Richard Serra's most important site-specific sculptures and remains a landmark of modern sculpture. Serra Sculpture Park is currently closed while Twain undergoes $500,000 in privately funded conservation and restoration work and is expected to reopen in late 2027.

You need proof of rabies vaccination to get the dog tag and gate code from city hall. They also request a picture. There is a pool that you can drain out (the old water goes into the creek behind the park) and refill with clean water if you wish. It's shallow enough for most dogs to wade in. You'll often see dogs just laying in the water on warm days. My puppy just discovered the miracle that is water, and loves splashing around in the pool. Since I didn't think she would go in the water the first time at the park, I wasn't prepared and didn't bring a towel. Now I always keep one in my car! There are some strict rules for the park: no dog food/treats, no leashes, no digging, etc. All of which keeps this place well kept and pristine. There are always toys around so I stopped bringing my own.

It's an awesome little community where dog and owner get to make friends. My dog loves running around and getting the "pack" feel. It's never too crowded which is nice and I love the amenities like the pool, benches, water bowls, and toys that are free for anyone to use. I also like the membership idea because it makes me feel like my dog is safe. Every single dog there is up to date on shots because that's one of the rules. Highly recommend

Occasionally and I mean rarely a situation arises where the dogs are misbehaving or the owners are being less than publicly pleasant.

Overall it is a wonderful place to enjoy time with your furry family friends and meet new bipedal comrades to converse with.
