Thursday Challenge—"park"

Farsighted people took this
abandoned elevated railway . . .

. . . planted native grasses, trees, and
wildflowers among the railroad ties . . .

. . . and created the High Line, one of my fave NYC
parks. There were lots of people who argued
against this project. I wonder what they think now
when they see what a huge success it is, and how it
has revitalized a big section of the far West Side.
