If you’re a pet owner searching for a dog-friendly apartment in Brooklyn, look no further than Loden. Located in the more residential side of Crown Heights, tucked next to the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Loden offers the perfect combination of pet-focused amenities and access to green space. Living at Loden means you're just minutes away from Prospect Park, one of New York City’s top destinations for dogs and their humans.

Prime Location Near Prospect Park and Dog-Friendly Activities

Living at Loden means Prospect Park is practically your backyard. Just 1.2 miles away, this expansive green space is ideal for morning walks, weekend strolls, and off-leash fun. Several of the park's expansive multi-acre lawns also offer off-leash hours for you and your pet to get some exercise in.

One of the park’s most beloved features for pups is the Prospect Park Dog Beach, where dogs can cool off and swim freely (a rare perk in NYC). The surrounding neighborhood is quieter and more spacious than other parts of Brooklyn, making walks and daily routines more enjoyable and less stressful for both pets and owners.

On-Site Amenities Designed for Pet Owners

Loden doesn't just allow pets, it actively welcomes them. One standout amenity is the on-site pet spa and dog wash station, which offers a convenient space for grooming and cleanup after muddy park adventures or rainy day walks. Whether you're doing a full bath or a quick rinse, the pet spa is thoughtfully designed with comfort and ease in mind.

Pet Policy and Resident Perks

Loden is proud to be a pet-friendly community but does have a few guidelines in place. Residents may have up to two pets per apartment with a combined weight limit of 75 pounds. Certain breeds are restricted, including Pit Bull Terriers, Rottweilers, Dobermans, Chows, and Akitas, among others. Emotional support and service animals are welcome with proper documentation and vaccination records, and a pet screening process is required after lease approval.

A monthly pet fee of $50 helps support and maintain pet amenities like the wash station. The management team is also working to build partnerships with local dog businesses, such as groomers and dog walkers, to enhance the experience for residents and their furry companions.

A Pet-Friendly Lifestyle at Loden

What truly sets Loden apart is its proximity to green space, a rarity in New York real estate. Being able to walk to Prospect Park for an off-leash run, relax under a tree, or visit Dog Beach makes it an exceptional place for dogs to thrive. Plus, the surrounding Crown Heights neighborhood features plenty of pet-friendly cafés and wide sidewalks perfect for afternoon strolls. At Loden, both you and your dog can feel at home.
