NYC: day two: Sunday, September 27, 2015: The High Line

We spent Saturday morning at the High Line, a former railroad track that's been converted to a park that is more than a mile long.
Sharon had a sprained ankle so relaxed and read the New York Times while I walked the High Line path.
The "man bun" was everywhere.
So much building going on!  Reminds me of the Austin skyline.
Not surprisingly, the High Line ends at the rail yard.
Flowers are everywhere on the High Line; condos and apartments line the walking path.
Lots of community activities take place on the High Line
Train track from the days when the High Line was a rail line and not a park.
A kid taking a drink at a water fountain ( a la Ayn Rand's "The Fountainhead"?)
High Line people watching area.  Besides shops and restaurants along the walking path, there are viewing stations where you can people watch through windows.
