   One of the biggest western neighborhoods of Queens, Forest Hills is a residential area that was formerly named “Whitepoint”. You'll find Flushing Meadows Corona Park to the east, home of the Underbridge Dog Run. This is a nice and friendly place to bring your pup for a good run or a set of morning drills when the place isn't packed with visitors. There are no drinking water fountains, and the cover is mostly dirt with occasional grass, so grab a bottle of water and a towel before visiting. On your way back, check out Forest Hill’s pet-friendly eateries situated near Austin Street, such as Red Mango, a fab place serving fruit smoothies and sweet frozen yogurts at the outdoor tables.
