It has been made on the old closed down rail lines that used to go to and from the Meat Packing district back in the day
For this post I will share some shots of the walkway along the highline, Starting with the first shot above which shows one of the Stairs up onto the Highline and this also shows how it is elevated

Of course being in the city you now only have the colors of nature front he gardens they added but here they seem to me to blend in nicely with all the buildings surrounding them, even though your in the city and lots of traffic is all around , being up on the elevated train tracks converted onto this park and walkway you are taken away from the hustle and bustle of the city, especially early morning like this when not to many are walking the Highline

But as this last shot shows I was not the only one walking the Highline, there were a few other people on the Highline walking or jogging the pathways, and I got this shot with one person in view to set the scene a little.
There are some cool views and cool buildings such as the one on the left in this last photo, I will process some shots of those for future posts
This finishes my first post of walking the Highline, Do have some more shots of the Highline and the views of the city that I will share in future posts.

This is amazing!! thanks for sharing. Wondering when were you there? Usually it's packed of people...
Thanks kindly
I started the walk at 7AM it’s me favorite time for walking before the crowds
Much better idea than tearing it down or leaving it to rot and fall down. Thank you for showing us this. You say there's more to come?
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
Yes I fully agree they have done such a great job on the park

I heard about the high line in New York. It think that is near the Village. Seoul copied it and made something similar last year.
yes near the Village and Chelsea
That’s cool there is something similar there
Amazing shots you got there and I really mean that. The first thing that came on my mind after seeing the photos was "Where are the people?" What time of the day was this taken?
The park opens at 7AM and that’s when these were taken. I to many people there
Thanks kindly
It is wonderful that they decided to make a park there instead of letting it become a place to collect garbage, drug addicts and delinquents.
I agree and the group that did it have done an amazing job
Your photos are always on point even on ur previous blogs!
thanks kindly I appreciate your support
That is just too freaking cool. When I finally visit Manhatten hopefully in the next few years I ' ll have to check this out. So beautiful in what people can do with different terrains
I strongly recommend visiting the Highline it’s well worth it
nice place!
it truly is
