VIDEO: New York City’s High Line Park
// January 27th, 2010 // VIDEO
It’s good to see New York City taking some action to create more green spaces, especially by reclaiming former industrial areas. The High Line Park is a former section of railroad track that makes its way through Manhattan’s Meatpacking District. The tracks were used until the 1980s, then shut down and left to decay until it was slated for demolition in the 1990s. That’s when a group of concerned citizens took action and helped to create this oasis in the middle of a metropolis.

Hey there! My name is Chris, and I am the Part Time Vagabond. Why part time? Well, while I'm based in the great city of Portland, Maine, where I live and work, I also love to travel. Unfortunately, I haven't yet figured out how to drop everything and travel full time. Meanwhile, I whittle away the hours creating videos, doing social media work, and playing outside. So welcome to Part Time Vagabond, the intersection of travel, outdoor life, and good craft beer.
