The High Line
Situated on a superblock bounded by 21st Street to the North, 20th Street to the South, 9th Avenue to the East and 10th Avenue to the West is the General Theological Seminary. It was established in 1817 as a training ground for future Episcopalian priests, and in 1827 construction began on the Seminary’s Chelsea campus.
This campus was enriched in the 1880s by a series of graceful Neo-Gothic structures designed by Charles Haight, which ring the perimeter of the institution’s serene inner quadrangle. This Oxford-style complex is one of the hidden treasures of the city. But there is more to the General Theological Seminary than that.
The Keller Library, formerly the St. Mark’s Library, has a first edition of the Authorized King James Version Bible and a Coverdale Bible (1535), the first complete Bible printed in English, on display. Not only that but Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas was written onsite at the Seminary.
This landmarked building is one of the oldest campuses in the city and open to the public for viewing during business hours.

From paintings and sculptures to ritual objects dating back to the 2nd century, The Rubin Museum is a treasure trove of works that specifically highlight the art of the Himalayas, India and other neighboring places. Its permanent collection alone includes over 3,800 objects of Tibetan art that span across 1,500 years. It now occupies a building that formerly housed fashion department store, Barneys New York — in fact, the museum’s six-story spiral staircase was left intact following the transition, and now serves as a remnant of its past life.
