You can take the 2 train at 149th Street-3 Ave going Downtown to Times Square-42 nd street (30 min train ride), transfer to the 7 train towards Hudson Yards. Then exit Hudson Yards, you’ll see the famous Vessel, which is now closed due to multiple suicides, but you can get a nice picture of it. Then the entry to the HighLine (elevated greenway on an old railroad) is near look for the signs.
Then continue of the Highline and get off on 14th street Chelsea Market. In Chelsea Market I recommend eating a taco from Los Tacos. no.1 or any restaurant that catches your eye. Then I’Little Island is walking distance (3mim) walk. You can grab a Coffee at the famous Starbucks Reserve before heading to Little Island. Finally you can walk Meat Packing
