[3] [4] The New York Post ran a two-page spread on the High Line yesterday. The feature focused on the High Line's impact on the neighborhood [5]:

"The High Line's presence, with its cutting-edge landscape design, alongside a bevy of art galleries has also attracted some of the world's most recognized architects, turning the neighborhood into an enclave of state-of-the-art building design dubbed 'Architects Row.' "


Design for Section 1 [6] (Gansevoort to 20th Street), was also covered, including the first public view of a design feature called the Tenth Avenue Square:

"Park visitors will be able to descend into the structure, into what will be called the 10th Avenue Square, and look out, giving them a sense of being suspended over the avenue near 17th Street."

Last, the article touched on the uncertain future of the High Line at the West Side Rail Yards [7], which reporter Tom Topousis has reported on before [8].
