High Line/Say goodbye to Tallulah, Bailey*




We had been waiting for the High Line to open for ever.
And it's wonderful.
Such a meld of post-industrial chic
and nature.




It's been written about all over the place ---
an old railway line above the streets.



Flowers and grasses planted between old railway ties.







Coneflowers against superannuated windows.
You can glimpse the river between the buildings here
and lots of river nearer 14th Street.
Lots and lots of people.




*Mother to small child. Overheard at the 20th St. exit.
