Manhattan's High Line park is now open! I've been excited about this new park for years - it's the renovation of an old elevated rail line through the lower west side of the city. A beautiful example of urban re-use. I had some fears about whether NYC could pull it off in a non-cheesy way, but the photos look very attractive.
Although, time will tell -- I wonder how the High Line will age?
"Like a lot of fans of the High Line, the opening of the first section a day early was a welcome surprise. It surpassed any hype that I had put on it myself. But to be honest I would have been happy with just about anything that gives a walking path with a new view of New York City that hasn’t existed before. "
