High Line (New York City)

The High Line at 20th Street.

  • ALT1:... that the elevated High Line railway viaduct in New York City, now a linear park, was originally constructed to avoid trains running in nearby streets?
  • Reviewed: Murata Jukō
  • Comment: Several other users, such as Beyond My Ken, have worked on this article significantly. I nominated the article for GA and am the editor who added the most text to the page. Also, the original hook said "over 5 million" instead of "about 5 million".

Improved to Good Article status by Epicgenius (talk). Nominated by Epicgenius (talk) at 14:44, 27 October 2014 (UTC).

  • Just as a very quick comment, the article and source say that the park gets "nearly 5 million annual visitors", whereas the hook says "over 5 million visitors". Might want to alter that. (Great article, and a great park!) -LÒÓkingYourBest(Talk|Edits) 19:13, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
  • Thank you for your comments. I fixed that. Epicgenius (talk) 20:36, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
  • I suggest avoiding ALT1. Readers don't need an explanation of why elevated railways are elevated. EEng (talk) 05:51, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
    • OK. I guess I will go with the main hook. I meant to say something about one nearby street being called Death Avenue, but then the hook would be too long. Epicgenius (talk) 06:30, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Argh! I just missed putting that hook up in time for this Halloween. Maybe we could... Epicgenius (talk) 14:30, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
