Early this year, I discovered a really cool initiative to re-purpose an out-of-use freight railway and turn it into a beautiful, raised walkway. You can see images and videos of this project in it’s concept stage in my original post.

Stretching 1.45 miles long and rising 18-30 feet above such neighborhoods as Hell’s Kitchen/Hudson Yards, West Chelsea, and the Gansevoort Market Historic District, The High Line (built in the 1930′s) was originally just a freight train line connecting factories and warehouses.
