Walk the Tracks: the High Line Garden Park

As someone with a soft spot for big cities and railways, I particularly like the High Line. This New York city garden park was created on a railway that fell out of use in 1980:

Planning for the High Line in its current form began in 2000 and by now it's one of the top destinations for tourists and New Yorkers alike:

I love these overgrown tracks, and all that green breaking through the slits in the paths:

I think that kid in a yellow tee shirt is doing my favorite thing -- talking to plants:

If you happen to be in New York, travel the High Line. Happy journey.

Live for the Love of it,
