The High Line is an unused rail line which runs above street level through New York City. Over the years it has been reclaimed by nature with grass and other wildlife growing all along the tracks. The Friends of the High Line are a non-profit organisation dedicated to the preservation and re-use of the High Line as a public service. Unfortunately for the time being it is illegal to actually walk along it, hopefully in the future the High Line will be a place for all New Yorkers to go to enjoy the sights and sounds of the city from this unusual vatage point.
