DID YOU KNOW?

PEP (Parks Enforcement Patrol) is a team of dedicated officers who protect parks and public facilities across the city. 

The PEP squad assigned to our area patrols Saint Nicholas Park daily, beginning at 11am. They are responsible for a large section of upper Manhattan, from 125th all the way up to 207th.

It is IMPORTANT, when you report any issues (i.e.: vagrant/homeless encampments, public lewdness, dog fight training) to note the time of day so that PEP is able to adjust their patrol time(s) if necessary.

To report an issue to PEP
• (212) NEW–YORK
• Call 311 or use the 311 app
• In case of emergency, call 911

NOTE: Before and after PEP patrol, the local NYPD 26th Precinct is our go to resource at Saint Nicholas Park. The precinct phone number is (212) 678-1311

The first order of bricks has been made and is scheduled to arrive to us mid-August. We will send out an announcement to those who purchased bricks as we get ready to instal them at the dog run.
