Located in New York City, the Highline is a garden space created out of a former elevated freight train line that has been defunct since the 1980s.

Love it. Well done. Lots of visual interest, color and textural variation, and a good balance of high and low growing elements. As it matures, it will be even better.

I like how the railroad ties draw your eye through the garden, much like a path in a more conventional setting.

The dirty hippie in me absolutely loves the fact that they converted this defunct industrial-ish space into a natural landscape. And they did it by incorporating the existing elements into the landscape. It's modern and edgy but somehow also calming and restful. I love it.

I agree it's a really cool mix of industrial pieces softened by natural plants. Love it!
