Words cannot express how in love I am with the brand-spankin new High Line park running along an elevated railroad track from Gansevort to 20th street (and getting expanded this summer and in the future). Here are the reasons
1) It's in the sky! As you walk the paths you feel like you're discovering a magical hidden world. Peeking into broken windows, watching cars fly below you, with amazing views of the hudson, it's a whole new way to see the incredible NYC!
2) It's beyond gorgeous. I want to kiss all the architects and landscapers who designed this place. It is the perfect blend of modern twists and old school park fun. The sleek lines of the benches combined with flowers growing from the preserved tracks and lovely old school stones that remind me of the type I would find back home in MA
3) the sundeck chairs. brilliant! Though I am sure they will most always be snagged, I can't think of a better place to soak in the sun (well, besides grass and sand of course)
Just go already! It's nutso during the weekends now but on a weekday afternoon? Perfect!
This one picture is from their website but it doesn't capture the beauty. Go and take some of your own!
