Out and About in a Yard in the Sky

Yardisabi and his daughter went to New York today and experienced a small section of The Highline Park which is a park built on the remains of an old elevated freight line in the old meat packing district. It runs from  Gansevoort to West 30th Streets but 30 feet in the air. It was also the inspiration for one of Yardisabi's favorite books for children, The Curious Garden by Peter Brown.

Don't know but they are pretty and there are an awful lot of them.

The garden has spread to the street.

Cattails at the water feature between 14th and 15th Streets. The Hudson is beyond.
