Friends of the High Line, a group that envisioned a public space in an abandoned freight railway on the city’s west side, has achieved the impossible. The elevated rail line has been converted to a narrow park 30 feet above the street. Visitors, strolling a promenade lined by wide benches and wildflowers, are surprised, delighted, and - a rare pleasure in New York - relaxed. The organization cleared countless hurdles by recruiting city support and backers with money and influence. Actor Edward Norton sits on the board. Benefactors include media titan Barry Diller and his wife, Diane von Furstenberg, whose son Alexandre is a board member. The first phase of the park opened last month and a second is under construction. ![]() |
