My new home in West Chelsea is a block away from an entrance to the forthcoming Highline Park on Manhattan's West Side. The park promises to be excellent when it opens late this Fall and if you're having trouble envisioning a park in the sky this nice (and curt) video does a good job explaining the history and future of the Highline. Yeah, it is narrated by Ethan Hawke (preservation + green initiatives + downtown hip = celebs swarming).
