Hydrating amid the hydrants

The Soho Grand Hotel on West Broadway offers its guests a special feature — a gated dog run right next to the hotel. The dog run features plants in stone vases, slate pathways, a water trough for lapping tongues and, in a special touch to make the pooches feel at home, a slew of fire hydrants, not working ones, however. There’s no red velvet rope to jump over here — neighborhood dogs can use the chic hotel’s run, too.
