Wednesday, June 1, 2011, by Sally Kuchar In December of 2010 Caltrans awarded a $2,600,000 highway landscape project, part of which includes a dog park for Rincon Hill residents.

We've posted the photo above, but if you'd prefer to watch a bunch of loud-mouthed millenials make fun of Eastwood about such a pursuit, please click on the TMZ link below.
