Palmer Doggie Depot (PDD) is a Fishtown community dog park and a free neighborhood amenity for all dogs and their owners. The dog park was built by New Kensington Community Development Corporation (NKCDC) as a part of a larger project to the Shissler Recreation Center and now sits on what the NKCDC has dubbed the “Big Green Block”. Come visit us!

PDD is led by a group of community volunteers and currently has a board of 9 members:

Mary Acker, President
Sara Autori, Vice President
Natalie Miller, Treasurer
Alan Bisco, Member
Joe Falchetta, Member
Alyssa Antoci, Member
Melissa Meier, Member
Margaret Patterson, Member
Patrick Moore, Member

Behind the scenes a dedicated band of volunteers, made up of Fishtown and Kensington residents, works steadily to maintain and improve the park.
