Hello HighLine - here I come! 6.29.13
I stationed on top of the highline park. Ironically, although I lived under the Highline for a whole summer last year , I did not get a chance to go on. By working on coffee project and setting goals for the first time explored the highline, as a "street artist".Â
I must admit HighLine is quite addictive after walking along it for a while. I love the art installation, green fields, people hanging out scene on the Highline - with a summer breeze.Â
I stationed next to the food court where I thought would have good traffic, I was there from 7 to almost 10pm and met a lot of interesting people.
Olivia (Blue Bottle Cart)- I remember meeting head barista Olivia of blue bottle by her big smile and warm personality, I showed her my coffee board and she asked if she could take a photo with me & here is the photo with the Blue Bottle sign, the La Marzocco machine, and the plant-based blue bottle cup.Â
It is very incredible that the Blue Bottle Cups are greenware, plant-based. It makes me happy to see that environmental-conscious choice. Later, on Instagram, Olivia helped tag her colleagues in 30 Rock. Blue bottle has demonstration every Saturday 10am on the Highline - I plan to go another time.
- A man in cup business pointed out to me that Toby's cup is paper + foam , thus most expensive.
- A guy from NJ gave me a card of a coffee shop in Wisconsin and he said I should go.
- Faith took photos of me while working and she aspires to be "people of New York "
- A lady shared same love for Porto Rico Coffee and recommended me to get Sambuca flavor.Â
Don is from Australia , becoming a photographer. He is currently photo journaling during his travel & took a nice photo of me working on the high line. (he took the photo on top of me working on the Highline)Â
After a fruitful day, I left the highline around 10pm. The next day was the Pride Parade and the Empire State Building turned to the rainbow color. How I love NYC. Below is a collage of the day in review
