Hi 👋 We’re a new campaign to protect the High Line. We're engaging our communities and elected officials to discuss the proposed rezoning of the Western Rail Yards. Without changes, the proposed rezoning would undo a 2009 community negotiated development plan and put the magic of our park in grave peril. Proposed plans—which include the development of three massive towers and a proposed new casino and were produced without any community input—would negatively impact the experience of millions of visitors and obstruct important and iconic views from the High Line. New Yorkers saved the High Line from demolition in the early 2000s, and then we saved the Spur from being torn down a decade later. We need your help to protect the High Line and put the Rail Yards plan back on the right track—community perspectives need to be heard. Visit our website to learn more, let us know what matters most to you about the High Line, and sign up to join us in the effort to protect the High Line: https://lnkd.in/ddpQUV4K 📸: Timothy Schenck
