About Friends of the High Line
Friends of the High Line is the nonprofit organization responsible for the High Line. We raise nearly 100% of the High Line’s annual budget.
Owned by the City of New York, the High Line is programmed, maintained, and operated by Friends of the High Line, in partnership with NYC Parks.
Our mission
Through excellence in operations, stewardship, innovative programming, and world-class design, we seek to engage the vibrant and diverse community on and around the High Line, and to raise the essential private funding to help complete the High Line’s construction and create an endowment for its future operations.
Who we are
History
Learn about the time when the High Line was a wild landscape hidden on the West Side, and how the community rallied to open it for the public.
Design
The visionary team responsible for the park features and landscape was inspired by both the industrial and the natural history of the elevated structure.
Leadership
Friends of the High Line is led by dedicated professionals who bring broad expertise to fulfilling our mission, and overseen by our Board of Directors.
