Chelsea Market

Highlight • Structure

A market in a large passage. Protected from the inclement weather, you can pretty much buy anything here.

The High Line

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A beautiful walkway park on the old upper Westside railway line closed in the 1980s and upgraded to the park in 2009-2016. There is plenty of seating and all kinds of architecture to admire. In addition, there is always the possibility to leave the park and enjoy the dining and supply options of the Chelsea Neighborhood.

Battery Park City Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

One lane for cyclists and skaters, another for pedestrians. Convenient and much more pleasant to walk than inner city avenues.

Little Island at Pier 55

Highlight • Structure

An artificial island standing on 132 tulip-shaped pillars. Many paths and a number of trees invite you to stroll and linger, and various artists often perform in the amphitheater. Admission is free. If too many visitors want to come to the island, numbers are given out to reduce the rush. Since the island protrudes quite far into the water and is up to 20m high, it offers wonderful views of the city.

Little Island

Highlight • Structure

Of course, Little Island looks very special from a distance. When you visit it is mostly “just” a park, but a very beautiful one! When you walk here you will find many different types of trees, shrubs and a few hundred other species of plants. This means it can rightly be described as a green oasis in the Hudson. There are hiking trails that lead to the highest points on the island and offer beautiful views of Manhattan, New Jersey and the river around you.

Don't forget to look for an arch that leads to the "secret garden." This garden is full of all kinds of white flowers. Little Island has three grassy areas where you can enjoy the sun and a picnic. There are free toilets in the park, which are located in a cave-like environment.

The Vessel, Hudson Yards

Highlight • Monument

The Vessel in New York is a structure in the Hudson Yards neighborhood, near the High Line Park. It is oval and consists entirely of stairs connected by levels. What exactly Vessel is is hard to say. It is most plausible when one describes it as a mixture between building, work of art and monument. Most of all, Vessel is an eye-catcher at Hudson Yards, which is at the end of the High Line Park. Vessel is the work of British designer Thomas Heatherwick. source: newyorkcity.de

March 28, 2025,The High Line und Schlendrian in NYC 🗽🇺🇸
The on-call fairy rang and suddenly I found myself in NYC. After breakfast with a former colleague who also happened to be in town, I headed off to the High Line - a park 9 meters above the ground, built on a former railway line 🚆. I've wanted to visit it for a long time. I actually wanted to walk …
