The 23rd Street Lawn is a popular gathering space on the High Line, offering open green space for picnicking, sunbathing, and people-watching.

Restoration plays a major role in maintaining the Lawn. To this end, the Lawn will be temporarily closed for a number of weeks to allow the grass to recover from a busy spring season. During this time, our gardeners will be working to re-seed and restore the Lawn to keep it a welcoming green space for the months ahead. Please help us restore the Lawn by staying on the path.

Beginning this week, Lawn Time for Little Ones [3] will move to the 10th Avenue Square, on the High Line near West 17th Street, and Arty Hours [4] will move to the 14th Street Passage, on the High Line between West 13th and West 14th Streets, until further notice. Please check our Event Calendar [5] or follow @highlinenyc on Twitter [6] for updates on programs and events.
