The High Line

Yesterday Matt, Ethan, Susie and I went into Manhattan to walk The High Line (http://www.thehighline.org).

The HL now appears on the NY must do tourist attractions but having opened in 2009 is the new kid on the block and therefore none of us had done it before.

It's a public park on a disused freight train line, it's about a mile in length and runs down the west side of southern manhattan connecting three districts.

We managed to visit on a sunny day, the weather had crept into double digits for the first time in ages. It's definitely a cool thing to do, it's good to walk through the city at height, you get a different perspective of things and it's also an innovative way to create space in a congested city.

Photos from our visit attached.
