The High Line (also known as the High Line Park) is a 1.45-mile-long (2.33 km) New York City linear park built in Manhattan on an elevated section of a disused New York Central Railroad spur called the West Side Line. Inspired by the 3-mile (4.8-kilometer) Promenade plantée (tree-lined walkway), a similar project in Paris completed in 1993, the High Line has been redesigned and planted as an aerial greenway and rails-to-trails park.
The High Line Park is built on the disused southern portion of the West Side Line running to the Lower West Side of Manhattan. It runs from Gansevoort Street – three blocks below 14th Street – in the Meatpacking District, through Chelsea, to the northern edge of the West Side Yard on 34th Street near the Javits Convention Center. An unopened spur extends above 30th Street to Tenth Avenue. Formerly, the West Side Line went as far south as a railroad terminal to Spring Street just north of Canal Street; however, most of the lower section was demolished in 1960, with another small portion of the lower section being demolished in 1991.
Repurposing of the railway into an urban park began construction in 2006, with the first phase opening in 2009, and the second phase opening in 2011.The third and final phase officially opened to the public on September 21, 2014. A short stub above Tenth Avenue and 30th Street, is still closed as of September 2014, but will open by 2017, once the Hudson Yards Redevelopment Project is completed. The project has spurred real estate development in the neighborhoods that lie along the line. As of September 2014, the park gets nearly 5 million visitors annually.

We passed along the south edge footprint of the former fort, appreciating the floral-embellished embankments
To all who visit and view, and – especially – express support and satisfaction: you are much appreciated!
Entsprechend den Bedingungen des Friedensvertrags von Versailles wurde das Fort Weisenau 1922 geschleift, die frei gewordene Fläche konnte erst ab 1930, nach der Beendigung der Alliierten Rheinlandbesetzung, genutzt werden; einzelne Kasematten blieben bis heute erhalten

A disused red telephone kiosk now used as a village book-exchange in Rushton Spencer, Staffordshire. Seems quite common round these parts.
With the war leaving the land in dire need of revitalization, Marin Monkey, now a veteran mech pilot of Fabu-Force, repurposed his old farming truck for uprooting dead trees.
360° gif in the first comment.
The idea behind Mech Monday was to post one model of a mech, robot or drone per week, each Monday of 2019. Markus did all 52 models last year. For personal reasons, I did only the first half. This year, I’m doing the remaining 26 weekly themes.
Join in on the fun in the Mech Monday group.
If you want a challenge or need inspiration, next week’s theme is “Reanimation.”
See you next Monday!
The loading area of the Dora Mine in Dora, Pennsylvania is showing some evidence of its construction. At least three early Pittsburg & Shawmut hoppers are partially exposed.
Our Daily Challenge ~ Misused or Repurposed
This glass pot had a previous life as a candle holder. Now the candle has been used it makes a perfect container for pens and pencils etc.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
The sign might not light up like the old Circuit City one, but they are not changing it back...

Former MARC GP40WH-2 69 now toils for [CSX] as their 9969, powering the Geometry Train. I wish more of those things were still running around.
The MK-rebuild of New York Central GP40 3051 actually looks good in the [CSX] "paint scheme".
Recycled skateboard, glued together, turned on a lathe then finished. In this case it's a bottle stopper.

31 focus stacked with Helcon.
Our neighbor gave us these when she got new ones. My DD decided that we should have chairs that sort of matched the color of our front door. I think she ran out of paint before she finished the legs on one but it’s too hot to paint now anyway!!
