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.
