High Line Tour |
We love the new High Line Park, and the first Tuesday of every month you can join the High Line's gardeners on a walking tour to learn about the park's one-of-a-kind horticulture design, and the unique challenges of tending a garden in the sky. There is a modest cost. Get the details at 3T Events.
