[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a non-dog owner who lives about a 20 minute walk from Rosedale, I think 300 should be the max number of dogs based on what I see. We use this space year round and things get pretty torn up and there is still dog crap all over the place where my kids try to play. This place is a gem and if it becomes a dog park, that's an insane waste of space. [/quote]

Same! We are a non dog owning family that lives within walking distance and love the open space! We go year round. My kids ask to go to the “tree park” all the time. [/quote]

Agreed!  Cleveland Park is fortunate to have Rosedale as its village green.  Rosedale almost didn’t happen, but then incredibly came together through the hard work (and generosity of  community members, neighborhood organizations and others.  Sadly, it’s an open question whether the same Rosedale outcome could be achieved today.  Not only would more money have to be raised, but with historic preservation under attack and an ANC that has a vocal pro-development-above-all majority, saving Rosedale today would face much tougher odds.[/quote]
