Today we will discover one of New Yorks most exciting urban parks, The High Line. Stretching 1.45 miles through the Meatpacking District and Chelsea along the west side of Manhattan, the High Line is one of New York’s newest-and most innovative-green spaces.
The park is built along an elevated railway 30 feet above the ground, the High Line weaves between buildings, offering vistas of the city and the Hudson River that are by turns dazzling and intimate. Throughout our walk, you’ll spot food and gift vendors, an array of public art, and year-round gardens inspired by the plants and grasses that once grew wild on the abandoned tracks.
As we continue our stroll above the city, watch a New Yorkers lounge in the sun, then later gaze up at the brightly lit Hudson Yards.
The High Line stretches from Gansevoort Street to 34th Street in Chelsea along Tenth Avenue, curving west to Twelfth Avenue around the Hudson Yards development at its northern end. Entrances every few blocks along its length lead up to the park.
It can get crowded, but trust us, this is the best walking tour of The High Line.
