    About Friends of the High Line

    The High Line is both a nonprofit organization and a public park on the West Side of Manhattan.

    We're devoted to reimagining public spaces to create connected, healthy neighborhoods and cities through our work with communities on and off the High Line.

    Built on a historic, elevated rail line, the High Line was always intended to be more than a park.

    You can walk through the gardens, view art, experience a performance, enjoy food or beverage, or connect with friends and neighbors while enjoying a unique perspective of New York City.

    Nearly 100% of our annual budget comes through donations.

    The High Line is owned by the City of New York, and we operate under a license agreement with NYC Parks.
