It’s hard to believe that the 1½-mile-long High Line – a shining example of brilliant urban renewal – was once a dingy freight line that anchored a rather unsavory district of slaughterhouses. Today, this eye-catching attraction is one of New York's best-loved green spaces, drawing visitors who come to stroll, sit, and picnic 30 feet above the city – while enjoying fabulous views of Manhattan's ever-changing urban landscape. It loops around Hudson Yards and ends at 34th Street.

An incredible, free, elevated park built on defunct train tracks that spans nearly one-and-a-half miles from Gansevoort to 34th Street.

The park provides incredible views of the Hudson River and surrounding neighborhoods of Chelsea and beyond, is punctuated by temporary and permanent public art and features native plantings that shine no matter the season.

Chelsea’s popular park on a former elevated railway offers a natural respite and 1.4 miles of car-free walking space set between the skyscrapers of Manhattan’s west side.

Also look out for the large-scale sculpture Sister of the Road, made of painted aluminum.

A stroll along the High Line can invigorate the soul. What was once an ugly freight track is now an elevated public park, hosting over 500 species of plants and trees and a museum’s-worth of modern art.

The High Line is a great place to let all of your stress melt away with a good, long, scenic walk with your closest family and friends. The continued support for artists whose work is spread throughout the walking route is really important.
