Description
The Highline, an elevated railway track running a hundred feet in the air through the Chelsea area of the lower west side of Mnhatten, with views of the Hudson river and looking into uptown Manhatten. This line became redundant several years ago and was due for demolition. A group of people wer determined to save it as it was considered to be an historical part of the area. It has been turned into an ariel park and beautiful walkway flanked by beautiful planting and beautifully lit as it winds through the neighbourhood cheek by jowel with highrise buildings.

Thanks Alan. I am originally from New York...about 15 miles east of here. I heard that the Highline had been saved and turned into a park. Bravo!!! I like your night shot of the lit buildings and the fading sky in the west. Well done.
A brilliant shot Alan and thanks for the info.
Great shot Alan , the Highline park was featured in an English Gardens magazine called Gardens Illustrated lots of good shots in the daylight but none like yours at night, its a fantastic place and you are lucky to have been there.
nice to see bill here as a native of the big apple, and to get his perspectives (as another of our truly sensitive photographers). I'm told you can see Jersey from here, as well as the towers of midtown (from certain vantage points). But I'm also told it's a very low-key place in spots. A gentle, quietly contrasted capture of a night-lit office building set against the west sky (that's New Jersey back there, though the law requires that you call it "joir-zey"). And some kind of billboard or building painting to the left. An enticing and quiet NY capture, with magic rather than the bustle so often associated with NY. Scintillating light. I'm looking forward to the rest of your NY offerings; it's a pleasure seeing it through your eyes. A fav for your offerings so far. And now I'll comment on a few older shots...
Beautiful picture!
A superb photo! I think it is Myrrluz (Lucinda) who showed us some daylight shots of the Highline.
Superb capture my friend. God Bless.
Wonderful work Alan, beautiful night capture.
AMAZING WORK!
This beauty my friend takes my breath away. :)))))) Love the sweet evening sky. :))))))) I really would like to see NYC one day. :))))) Most gorgeous and excellent capture my friend. :)))) I am so glad your time in NY was most sweet and wonderful. :))))) Thank you for sharing all of the beauty you see. :)))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :))))
Wonderful shot.
A fine night shot - I like the variety of colors in both the sky & the lights here...
Stunning shot! Awesome sky!
Great capture. I like the mood you captured. Is it my imagination or has the lit up building curved and slanted edges?
So impressing, with sky, lights, colors and POV!
A beautiful view and especially the well lit building!
