Founded in 1999 by community residents, Friends of the High Line fought for the High Line’s preservation and transformation at a time when the historic structure was under the threat of demolition.

In addition to overseeing maintenance, operations, and public programming for the park, Friends of the High Line works to raise the essential private funds to support more than 90 percent of the park’s annual operating budget, and to advocate for the transformation of the High Line at the Rail Yards, the third and final section of the historic structure, which runs between West 30th and West 34th Streets.

HIGH LINE The High Line is an elevated freight rail line transformed into a public park on Manhattan’s West Side. It is owned by the City of New York, and maintained and operated by Friends of the High Line.

Founded in 1999 by community residents, Friends of the High Line fought for the High Line’s preservation and transformation at a time when the historic structure was under the threat of demolition. It is now the non-profit conservancy working with the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation to make sure the High Line is maintained as an extraordinary public space for all visitors to enjoy. In addition to overseeing maintenance, operations, and public programming for the park, Friends of the High Line works to raise the essential private funds to support more than 90 percent of the park’s annual operating budget, and to advocate for the transformation of the High Line at the Rail Yards, the third and final section of the historic structure, which runs between West 30th and West 34th Streets.

HIGH LINE MEMBERSHIP Members help provide more than 90% of the High Line’s operating support each year. Friends of the High Line depends on members to hire staff who keep the park clean, tend the plantings, and create programs and artwork to engage visitors. Members receive the biannual High Line Magazine, invitations to special events, discounts at local stores, and other benefits. Visit www.thehighline.org to learn more.

HIGH LINE ART Friends of the High Line commissions site-specific artworks for the park, offering a platform for visual, performance, and sound art by emerging and established artists.

HIGH LINE FOOD The High Line features food kiosks offering seasonal meals and snacks, as well as an open air café at The Porch, serving small plates, beer, and wine.

HIGH LINE PROGRAMS Friends of the High Line offers free and low-cost public programs, including family activities, teen workshops, volunteer opportunities, film series, field trips, and tours for all ages.
