The High Line, NYC

By Kerry Hawkins of Khawkinsphotography








"The High Line is a public park built on a 1.45-mile-long elevated rail structure running from Gansevoort Street to 34th Street on Manhattan's West Side."

The last time I visited New York the park was closed. I have always wanted to see the High Line. I think it is so cool that they have used this old rail line to make a public space. It is fun to be in a park and be a couple stories up and looking at all buildings and neighborhoods. There were places to sit and relax, hang out, and also there were artists showing their work.

The bottom photo is of my friends, Darren, Candace, Danielle and Jeff walking along the High Line.

Check out this site, Artessen. There are tons of artful blogs to discover. It is addicting!

  1. I've been wanting to see the High Line too! The urban version of the Central Mass Rail Trails, which I so enjoy. :-)

  3. Gorgeous as always. We didn't make it to the High Line - too hot. Wish I'd had your camera-eye for photographing street-level wonders, though.

    Hope to see you soon.
