One of my favorite place to visit in the Spring is the relatively new High Line park in NY.
The High
Line is a 1-mile (1.6 km) New York City linear park built on a
1.45-mile (2.33 km) section of the former elevated New York Central
Railroad spur called the West Side Line,
which runs along the lower west side of Manhattan; it has been
redesigned and planted as an aerial greenway.
The High Line Park currently runs from Gansevoort Street, three blocks below
West 14th Street, in the Meatpacking
District, up to 30th Street,
through the neighborhood of Chelsea to the West Side Yard, near the Javits
Convention Center.
The recycling of the railway into an urban park has
spurred real estate development in the neighborhoods which lie along the line.
And as long as you are in the area,don't miss this wonderful exhibit at the Gagosian Gallery
522 West 21st Street
A bientôt,
