Nice series of pics of the high line.  We saw it on our last visit to NY but didn't have a chance to a walk along the path.  Thanks for sharing this pics, you captured it very nicely.

The High Line

The High Line of New York is a converted "park in the sky" from a rail tract. Beautifully made and a joy to walk through. I highly recommend anybody that goes to NYC not to miss The High Line. cen@jkt Road theater. Good to sit down and watch the world pas...  

Wonderful pictures...I think jporos might know...

I haven't been to NYC in a few years but will definitely have to check it out when I do. Your pics are wonderful cen, hope you had a great time out there. I recall PuristS jporos did a post on The High Line, hope he can chime in and tell us what building ...

Uploaded the picture, and it spit out IAC Building. Something to do with Barry Diller :) Food? Wow, NYC has the most diverse food scene in the world. Might need 1-2 weeks to sample some of the food. Miss: Les Halles (am a fan of Bourdain), ethiopian resta...  

Nice!

That lobster rice at Momofuku sounds and looks delicious. I've heard various opinions of Peter Luger's, what did you think of it? -MW

I don't know if ...

my explanation make sense, but I try my best. The only other steak that is comparable to Peter that I have eaten is Aragawa in Japan. And the analogy of cars and culture enter my mind: one is nimble, subtle, refine, and of super high quality. Another is r... 

IAC Building was designed by Frank Gehry...

His first building in New York, I believe. The form and the fritted glass that looks like it is fading from transparent to opaque are meant to evoke sails or clouds. I think that Gehry is better known in NYC today for this building: ...  

Brings back memories….I used to get omelets at Cafe Reggio. It's been a while.

Balthazar always looked promising, but it's the noisiest restaurant I've ever visited, so I don't think I'll go back. Had the most amazing flank steak ever at Momofuku Ma Peche. They sou vided it for a very long time, then seared it. Delicious and tender ... 

Great Traveling

I haven't been to the Highline during the day, but it's awesome at night! The highline is lit very dramatically. It's peaceful, yet perfectly safe as there is still a fair amount of traffic. Truly a beautiful park. Well don New York. Well done!

I saw a documentary not long ago....

about this elevated park, and you present it beautifully. There is an anegdote to it: There was an older lady living in a flat on the second floor right next to it, and the lights as well as noise kept her awake at night , so being a New Yorker she dealt ...
