take a stroll on new york City's high line

6/30/2014

One feature of cities I visit that I always seek are public gardens and parks. The greener the city, the better - I enjoy the balance between architecture and the business of the city and nature and the calmness one can find. As our cities change and expand, I think it is important to keep greenery in mind.

So, you can only imagine how excited I was to find out about High Line. This New York City's public park is just plain cool. Converted train tracks above the city, in Manhattan's West Side. And it has it all. There are flowers, trees, and bushes. There are benches, lounge chairs, and outdoor sofas. There are statues, graffiti, local artists. There are open areas; there are intimate corners. And of course, there is food. 

The last two trips to New York City meant that I had to reserve time to stroll through this park. It is well designed and found a lovely combo of colors, textures, and patterns. When I looked up, I saw the bustle of the city. When I looked down, I saw the variety of nature. 

Will you head out there?
