Overton Bark

On December 10, The Barking Lot, a pop-up dog/art park on the corner of Jefferson and Main, will open to the public!

Central Bark Dog Park is a pop-up dog park in the South Main district, placed on a prominent corner. The Downtown Memphis Commission was able to establish a valued neighborhood asset – a very active community meeting spot for dogs, dog owners, and neighbors – and improve the overall pedestrian experience for residents and visitors by elevating the use of this formerly vacant 0.15-acre lot.

Bring your dog to this enclosed dog park with benches, grass, and trees for shade to run and play off-leash.

A 9-hole golf course, a zoo, two playgrounds, an art museum, and a 126-acre forest are all part of this sprawling park.
