The High Line is an elevated freight rail line transformed into a public park on Manhattan’s West Side. There are several cafes, chairs, benches, tables, (even a fountain or two) along the way. The views are absolutely beautiful (I love walking at sunset). There are several places to rest along the way, and many places to disembark and shop so you go at your own pace.
