Strand and Barnes and NOble are also nearby. Just like other parks in Manhattan, this place is pet-friendly. This is another good spot for shopping since a lot of shops that sell bargain shoes, clothes, books and electronics are scattered all over the place.

NYU is nearby, as well as the New York Film Academy.
