Discover what was once a railway connecting upper and lower Manhattan. See how the High Line has been fully converted into a beautiful walkway slightly elevated above the street.

Wonderful place to see; first time for us. Sara, our guide, was friendly, informative, and professional throughout the tour. She was also sensitive to varying rest periods where we could sit down while she continued informing us. She also had a good sense of humor and willingly answered questions.
