THE EXPANDING HIGH LINE

High Line Part 2

Whenever we visit NY we make time to stop by the High Line. It’s our favorite park for many reasons. But most importantly, it reminds us what can be accomplished when a few determined community members rally and convince everyone of their vision for something beautiful and innovative. At times it must have seemed impossible to get buy-in from other community members, public officials and city administration, but they did it. And, they did it with amazing effect.

This week they opened the second section of the park which doubles its size – making it one mile in length stretching from Gansvoort Street to West 30th – connecting the Meatpacking District, West Chelsea and Hell’s Kitchen. If you haven’t checked out the High Line, we highly recommend visiting.
