High Line gets first proposal, and 99,998 more visitors
Nearly 100,000 people have already visited the High Line, and at least two of them are now apparently engaged to wed.
The High Line blog has pictures of what appears to be the first proposal on the High Line.
Since the High Line opened June 8, crowds have been a problem only twice, officials said. “So far, the only times we’ve had to ask people to wait to enter was on Saturday and Sunday, between 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM. The wait was not more that 30 minutes,” Joshua David and Robert Hammond, co-founders of Friends of the High Line said Thursday in their newsletter.
For the first few weekends only, park-goes must enter the High Line at Gansevoort and Washington streets, map.
There are a number of upcoming events at the High Line, including Sunday walking tours with architectural historian and High Line horticulture staff members.
