The high line is an excellent use of an old elevated railway line in NYC. Sitting above the traffic allows for great views across avenues and streets and offers visitors an interesting and unique perspective of the city. There are elevators at certain entrances for kids strollers / disabled access.

This is a great idea and well worth doing. The planting looks really attractive and there are plenty of seats as well as some restrooms. I found the views interesting rather than photogenic - Buildings at the southern end and railyards at the top end. There is a walk at each end to return to he subway. They also close...

Really awesome place, it was a train track that used to be operational, but ever since the train stopped, it was transformed into a beautiful sightseeing place.

Lovely escape from hustle bustle and smog. friends of highline could help their cause by actually labelling the plants on the route rather than simply reminding people to Walk on path. Very pleasant way to spend an hour or so in NY. Then go to Chelsea markets afterwards. Well worth it! It is free!

Yes is beautiful but you can skip it if there's something better to do. I thought it was way better than it really is

This is the third time we have visited the High Line. This time we started at the north end and walked half way down. Still a lot of work to be completed.

I adore this attraction. It is such an asset to the city. Take a break from the hustle and bustle & take a walk on the highline. A seasonal exhibit the highline, from what I hear is beautiful year round. I visited on a rainy Monday & I so enjoyed it. It is a great way to experience New York....
