A “curb” is a raised lip that separates the sidewalk from the street. At the margin of the sidewalk and street you will find the gutter. The gutter directs rainwater and other waste away from buildings to the storm drains.

The phrase: “Curb Your Dog” means that you should take the animal off of the sidewalk and over the curb if it needs to go to the bathroom.

(having a “ban dogs” moment right now. This too shall pass.) #nyc #gross
