Elevated Walkway Begins (Part Seven)

Ahh...the concrete tendrils that announce the actual construction of the new walkway. These views are from approximately 20th to 18th Street. (click pics for enlargement)



Not sure if you can tell in the pic, but the walkway is raised and pitched at an angle...with a new railroad bed to the left where indigenous flowers and plants will be grown...

Now we hit the solid walkway...around, oh...18th Street


Here's the new track....

I don't get up before 8 AM. On my days off, I've been known to sleep past noon.

What possessed you to go up there before 7AM.

The police! It's illegal to walk the High Line. But don't let that stop you...
