Tompkins Square Dog Run
7th St. at Ave. A
Established in the mid-eighties, this was the first dog run in the city, and it takes credit for helping make Tompkins Square Park a safer place. The pups here are gleeful, their owners are all friends, and the community is ultrasupportive. It even holds wacky events such as the biggest Halloween dog-costume contest in the region. This spring: a $15,000 renovation from wood chips to an elaborate crushed-rock drainage system.

Our mission this year: to hunt down not just the best but the best values in the eating, shopping, drinking, and general-consuming universe of New York. It’s quite the process, this, requiring eating and shopping and drinking (all in the name of research), followed by heated but civil discussion, and heated but less-civil discussion, until a winner emerges in each category.
