The High Line - volunteering opportunities

One of my favorite places of "my New York" is the High Line. It is very close to our flat and I can walk all the way to the Meatpacking District :) It is a great program for the weekends as there are loads of lovely places to have brunch there after the walk.
The High line runs from the Gansevoort Street up to 30th Street (West Chelsea). It was a very ambitious urban renewal project which transformed a disused railway into public park with amazing views from the Hudson River and the city from another perspective.



In spite of having being open to the public in June 2009 (the portion between Gansenvoort to 20th Street), it has already become one of the main attractions in New York. You can see most of the art galleries in West Chelsea as well.

I have applied to be a volunteer in the Green-Up Spring Cut back between March and April. The deadline was on the 13th of February, I was a bit late....But I hope to hear something back. Fingers crossed!!!! It should be fun and also an amazing opportunity to meet new people :)
