Item Description

Get the inside story of New York's Park in the Sky: the High Line! For up to 6 guests, this special tour will be given by Friends of the High Line’s Co-Founder and The Civilians' benefit honoree Robert Hammond of the yet-to-be-built Section 3 of the park.

The High Line is a public park built on an historic freight rail line elevated above the streets on Manhattan’s West Side. It is owned by the City of New York, and maintained and operated by Friends of the High Line. Founded in 1999 by community residents, Friends of the High Line fought for the High Line’s preservation and transformation at a time when the historic structure was under the threat of demolition. It is now the non-profit conservancy working with the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation to make sure the High Line is maintained as an extraordinary public space for all visitors to enjoy.
