What People Are Saying About High Line
The Editor
Emily Morris
Citysearch
Once a former railway track, the High Line runs through the Meatpacking District (where the freights used to deliver meat), Chelsea (where they dropped off agricultural goods to warehouses) and lower midtown (where the trains brought mail to the Post Office). Now, the High Line is a public park that combines lush greenery, concrete pathways and even wooden lounge chairs. It's a unique experience and the perfect activity for locals and tourists alike.
