New York’s High Line Hotel

For the past four years, New York’s High Line has served as one of the most scenic and tourist friendly outdoor spaces in the entire city. Though the elevated park runs right by the always-popular Standard Hotel, it now has a luxury lodging with its own namesake—The High Line Hotel.

One of the newest additions to New York’s ever increasing array of high end accommodations, the High Line Hotel is located at 20th Street and Tenth Avenue and is housed in a renovated portion of the General Theological Seminary. The Seminary itself was built in 1895 and originally designed by architect Charles C. Haight and the original red brick façade has been maintained throughout. The cloistered nature of the building and the grounds itself provide the hotel with an intrinsic sense of sanctuary among the bustling High Line park and Chelsea gallery district.

The interior was designed by Architectural Digest AD100 designers Roman and Williams with an aesthetic that combines both eclectic Americana and upscale European styles. Standard rooms range between 250 and 350 square feet and feature luxury queen beds, vast bathrooms, complimentary WiFi and views that overlook the High Line Park or the private seminary garden and courtyard.

The hotel had it’s soft open in May, but eventually the courtyard space will become a bar and dining area where guests and native New Yorkers alike can take refuge among the private gardens and admire the original Gothic architecture and stained glass windows; just some of the historical design items that set the High Line Hotel apart from the other accommodations in the area. However, the lobby already features a custom-built bar and seating area that serves as Intelligentsia Coffee’s first East Coast output.

Whether you’ve been to New York before, or are planning on visiting for the first time, try the High Line Hotel and see what the city is like when you’re in the middle of the action, but feel a peace and tranquility that is out of line with the “classic” New York experience.

Save up some bread tags for your next camping trip
A view from an open camping tent

When camping, it's often the smallest, most unexpected items that prove to be the most useful. One tool that's been overlooked in this fashion is the humble bread tag. I can't tell you the number of times I've tossed that little plastic clip that keeps the bread closed in my backpack, but believe it or not, bread tags are pretty useful when it comes to camping. Here are two fantastic ways to use bread tags next time you go camping in the wild.

Camping gear often involves cords and ropes, and oftentimes, these get tangled pretty badly to and from the campsite. A bread tag is a simple yet effective solution to keep all of your cords and tent lines in order while you're on the go. Just wrap your cord into loops around your hand and secure it all with the bread tag. As long as everything fits inside, this tip can help prevent those frustrating knots that remind you of untangling the Christmas lights.
