Local Tips from Noble Square Dog Owners

  • Noble Square has NO official off-leash DFA - Eckhart Park is popular for on-leash walks but dogs must stay leashed
  • Nearest DFAs are in Wicker Park (Churchill Field) or Walsh Park - bring your DFA tag
  • Division Street bars stay open until 4-5 AM - expect crowds and street closures after 3 AM on weekends
  • The Polish Triangle at Division/Ashland/Milwaukee is the historic heart of Polish Chicago - great for a walk
