Travel planning tips

How to plan the area well

Plan The High Line as part of a wider neighborhood or city block instead of making it the only stop in that part of the day.
Outdoor stops tend to be easier to pace when you keep the rest of the day light and avoid too many cross-city jumps.
Outdoor stops usually work best when you pair them with one or two nearby indoor attractions instead of stacking too many transit-heavy moves.
