New York City High Line


The High Line was a stretch of rail tracks built in the 40's on the west side of Manhattan. It was elevated to alleviate the problem of too many people got killed by moving vehicles. It was pretty much abandoned until a few years ago, a private group of citizen decided to restore the elevated track as a park. And they are doing a good job with it. It is not completed yet. In a couple of years, when it is finished, the track will you all the way to the Hudson River. The view will be even better than that of today.

These are some of the pictures I took from the track.
