Photos by Jennifer Ruley, Oct. 2009, taken while she was in New York for the Walk21 conference. This slideshow focuses on the recently opened Highline Park, an elevated railroad that was saved from demolition and developed into a park. This former railroad is located in Manhattan (western Greenwich Village). Please check out the following four minute film on the Walk21 conference by Streetfilms, it really captures the event. http://www.streetfilms.org/archives/walk21-nyc-world-pedestrian-leaders-take-manhattan/
