Abandoned railroad now an elevated park -- let's go! was created by Amizar (Amizar)

Heya,

Has any of our number from NYC visited this new park?

High Line Park (www.thehighline.org)

Seems like a cool new thing to do in the city. It has restrooms and even an elevator! Anybody up for a group trip?

I have all ready visited there a number of times. It's a great place. The view is fantastic and it's hard to believe the history behind the creation of it. You would never beleive a lush, green area could exist on top of some old rails and steel elevated 20 to 30 feet above the streets.

Philadelphia Inquirer ran a piece on it today, as did NPR, which also commented on a section of E. London which grew 1000# of wheat on an old elevated or something.
