The High Line – a jewel overlooking the Big Apple
New York City may be famous for the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and the World Trade Center Memorial, but it is also home to one of the country’s most innovative public parks. The High Line, a 1 1/2-mile-long greenway, runs above ground on what used to be an elevated rail freight line.

I thought it was the old West Side Highway.
Nope. And I originally thought it was the old Bronx “el”. Funny about that.
