Seventeen years after welcoming its first visitors, the High Line is nearing completion. 🌿

Its final garden is expected to open this November at West 34th Street and Twelfth Avenue, bringing roughly 2,000 perennials to the park’s northern entrance. Designed by Piet Oudolf, the new garden marks the last piece of the elevated greenway - and the removal of its remaining construction sheds.

The Plaza is checking out - for at least four years.

The Plaza Hotel will close in January 2027 for a restoration of its historic façade, with no reopening date confirmed.

The closure will include all 282 hotel rooms, the Palm Court and event spaces. Residents of the building’s 181 condominiums are expected to remain, though the prolonged work and loss of hotel services could complicate condo sales and give buyers more room to negotiate.
