Start your day with one of the many activities listed below:

The High Line - A magnificently preserved New York City landmark. The High Line began in 1934 as an above ground train track running from 34th Street to Spring Street. After the trains stopped running in the 1980’s, it was clear something else spectacular could be created with space. In 1999, The Friends of the High Line was formed and in 2009 the first section of the walkway opened to the public. The High Line is a must-see for New Yorker's and visitors alike, as well as the perfect way to start your day in the Meatpacking district.

From unique pieces of clothing, jewelry, and art, every vendor in the market is extremely talented and more that happy to discuss their works and exactly how they come to be.
