⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Walking NYC : 'The Spur', The High Line Elevated Park's Final Section

A walk on the High Line Elevated Park's Final Section: The Spur.

From Wikipedia:

"The High Line (also known as High Line Park) is a 1.45-mile-long (2.33 km) elevated linear park, greenway and rail trail. It was created on a former New York Central Railroad spur on the west side of Manhattan in New York City. Led by landscape architecture firm James Corner Field Operations, the abandoned railway has been redesigned as a "living system" that draws from multiple disciplines including landscape architecture, urban design, and ecology. Since opening in 2009, the High Line has become an icon in contemporary landscape architecture.

The park is built on the disused southern viaduct section of a New York Central Railroad line called the West Side Line. Originating in the Lower West Side of Manhattan, the park runs from Gansevoort Street – three blocks below 14th Street – in the Meatpacking District, through Chelsea, to the northern edge of the West Side Yard on 34th Street near the Javits Center. Formerly, the West Side Line went as far south as a railroad terminal at Spring Street, just north of Canal Street. However, most of the southern section was demolished in 1960, with another small portion being demolished in 1991."

HighLine is really an impressive feature! I've heard the real estate value of buildings along the line has skyrocketed because everyone want to live and have their business close to the Line.

Shout out to you actionkid from CANADA. So much fun to walk with you ' cause I really cannot walk but feels like I can. Watching the " thunderstorm " right now. NYC REALLY PREPARED. They have umbrellas. Like the narration also and you are a classy guy. No swearing. Will keep walking with you.

hey action kid can you do a narrated version of the entire high line again. I think the last one you did was in the winter. The summer version should be pretty cool
