High Line Park Observations 

Conducted by many. Presented by  Shanna and Ryan who discussed visitations on Friday midday, Monday evening (5pm) and Sunday afternoon.

Students noted that Sunday is the most crowded day in High Line Park where people walked quickly almost in a single file. This park is built on top of an old train station in Chelsea which extends 25 streets long with lots of open space. Although the park lacks water fountains, the Hudson River is visible. The people that occupied this park were mostly upper-class/middle-class white people such a single white men. The entrances are secluded and there is a hidden sign that says “High Line Park.” It is clear that this park is clean and maintained with private guards, making it a safe place.  Many visitors/tourists were seen taking pictures of the serene atmosphere. The most crowded place in the park is by the sundeck and water feature filled with sun chairs. Singles, doubles and triples occupy the local area and there are lots of parking garages in the neighborhood.
