Once a freight rail line from 1934 to 1980, the High Line is now an elevated 1.45 mile public park that runs from Gansevoort Street to W. 34th on the West Side of Manhattan, New York. Outdoor art, unique flora, interesting views, cafes, markets, and more can be experienced at this modern park that is a photographer’s heaven. Best of all, it’s free!
