Mary Ann Street Park Off Leash Area

Located in Sydney’s Inner City, Mary Ann Street Park in Ultimo provides a small off-leash area in the middle of a busy urban neighbourhood.

The park is unfenced and has a community-focused feel, offering local residents a convenient spot to exercise their dogs close to home. Its compact design makes it more of a local park than a destination.

The off-leash space features grassy areas with some shade from established trees, along with benches for owners. The flat, open layout makes it easy to keep dogs in sight, and the park’s quiet backstreet setting provides a break from surrounding city traffic.

As the park is unfenced and bordered by local roads, dogs with reliable recall are best suited here. The grass can become patchy with frequent use and after rain. There are no dog-specific facilities, so owners should bring their own water.

The park sits within walking distance of Broadway shopping centre, Ultimo cafés, and nearby university campuses, making it convenient to combine a dog outing with errands or a coffee stop.

Mary Ann Street Park is best suited to smaller or calmer dogs who don’t require a large running space.

Mary Ann Street Park is managed by the City of Sydney Council.
