Description

Possible over-watering at the new dog park, leaving the turf soft & muddy with lots of muddy puddles.

This is the really nice new grassy dog park by the Bay Street pedestrian bridge. I've visited a few times around midday, most recently on 7/25. The turf is often very soft and muddy with small puddles of water throughout.

It doesn't seem like this is intentional, as muddy turf tends to encourage digging by dogs, and obviously leave them kind of a mess running around in it. And obviously this may be a waste of water if that much is pooled up on the turf that late in the day. It seems like the park is often empty now after a lot of interest when it opened, likely because of this.
