the High Line

The High Line. What a glorious way to see the city! I loved all the foliage juxtaposed with the concrete walkway, the overall angled yet sinuous movement, the 'Urban Theater' that in my preconceptions thought would be lame but was actually quite great in terms of if you're on the higher part of the High Line and peeking into that occupied 'box.' Such a seemingly simple, but elegantly executed project, and such a great urban gesture! So inspiring. I'm a little incoherent because I'm so tired. They say New York is the city that never sleeps, but for me it's not that I'm so busy going out and about, I just can't seem to grab more than three hours of sleep a night. Going to try to break that routine now...
