Turn the abandoned Barlow Street city owned plots into a thriving green space for dogs.
Why is this important?
In the heart of the Forest Hills/Woodbourne neighborhood lies three neglected city owned land plots. This Jamaica Plain neighborhood is very dog friendly, but lacks a dog park or off-leash dog area. Dog owners take advantage of green spaces like nearby Parkman Playground or Forest Hills Cemetery. However, maintaining leash laws means recognizing the realities of shared spaces. Turn the Barlow Street plots into a dog park because securing the safety of everyone in the community should be a priority.
