Check it Out: The High Line

After ten years of advocacy, planning, and construction, the High Line is opening. Section 1 of the High Line (from Gansevoort Street to 20th Street in New York) will open Tuesday, June 9, offering visitors the chance to preview the rest of the park, which is still under construction.
Access to the High Line will be limited this month. They've enlisted a special corps of trained volunteers, the High Line Greeters, to help out on the High Line during opening season. Greeters will be stationed throughout the park, and can answer questions about the park including location of all park features. You will be able to identify these greeters by their High Line logo T-shirts. For more info, click here.
