The skeletal remains of the High Line’s elevated tracks set the
perfect scene for a spooky evening. Join Free Tours by Foot for a
journey to the creepier side of New York City’s most unique park. On
this tour you’ll hear tales of the strange eccentric who lived below
the tracks and saved them from demise, the curse of a West Side Cowboy
who fell to his death from the elevated track, and the children who
haunt the street formerly known as Death Avenue. If the moon hangs
right perhaps you’ll witness the spectacle of a ghostly ship
floating down the Hudson River; is it the long forgotten crew of Henry
Hudson’s Half-Moon warning sailors not to go to sea? Or is it
Captain Kidd protecting the treasure he buried on Liberty Island?
Venture at your own risk through the dark side of High Line.
