EXPERIENCE:
If you asked any New Yorker in the past what would happen to the defunct raised train tracks on the westside or the westside rail yard, they would have said. “Nuthin’ is gonna happen!” But to all of our surprise, the now-famous High Line Park was born from the old train tracks and the Hudson Yards Development grew like trees out of the former rail yard. These two new important landmarks of Manhattan intersect. Your entertaining and knowledgeable guide will take you around both and you will experience all they have to offer, plus hear the history of both areas and the cool eateries and bars to visit.
