With that in mind, consider taking in the \u201cHigh Line\u201d on your next visit to New York City. Located on Manhattan\u2019s West Side, the High Line is an ongoing conversion of an abandoned elevated freight line into a public park and greenway. The space provides a peaceful, unique perspective over the frenetic city, including planting areas, promenades, viewpoints, and art displays alongside a wide walking path. Section 1 opened in 2009  and Section 2 opened in 2011. The Spur, the last section of the High Line that extends east along 30th St. and terminates above 10th Ave., opened in June 2019.\u00a0The park stretches for approximately 1.5 miles above the streets of Chelsea and the Meatpacking District, in close proximity to public transportation.
