the high line was an abandoned railroad spur running from 34th street through chelsea, the meat packing district and finally terminating in the west village. after numerous attempts to tear it down, it was land marked and eventually turned into an elevated park. the first section runs from gansevoort street to 20th street and opened in june. the northern section is set to open next year.
