About the Park
Northeast Minneapolis gets its designated off-leash space along St. Anthony Parkway, part of the Grand Rounds parkway system that rings the city (zip 55418). The recreation area is listed as free, with the usual Minneapolis caveat: park-board off-leash sites run on permits, so check requirements before repeat visits. Beyond off-leash status, the record is quiet on fencing, surface, and hours. The parkway setting is the bonus — walk a stretch of the Grand Rounds on leash first, then let the dog burn off the rest inside the designated area. Northeast's bungalow blocks and brewery corridors sit close by, so the park slots neatly into a weekend loop.
