Photos of the High Line

The High Line, located on Manhattan's West Side, opened to the public nearly two years ago as an elevated public park. Championed by Friends of the High Line, this former lifted freight line now serves the public as a beautiful park and art space. With over 210 species of perennials, grasses, trees, and shrubs planted in the park, as well as many of the original features of the old freight line, this monument to the West Side's industrial history is truly a gem. There's also plenty of inspiration for home gardeners to be found at the High Line. Take a look at some ways you can transfer a bit of the High Line to your homefront.
