The View From High Line Park


Yesterday I posted pictures taken during my first stroll along New York City's fabulous High Line Park. Today I'm sharing pictures of the VIEW from the High Line - which stands two stories above street level. The pics above and below are of the Hudson River - with New Jersey in the background.


The modern building (below) is InterActiveCorp Headquarters (designed by Frank Gehry). The low-rise building on the lower right is the late, lamented Roxy nightclub. If those walls could talk...


Views of the side streets...



Big Mama - the Empire State Building ...


Wildflowers on the High Line, and tenement buildings on the street...
