What is that smell in High Line Park in NYC?
There is a relatively new odor in the air around High Line Park. It is sharp and pungent, smells vaguely of cilantro. Other passersby have also noticed the aroma, many of which have stopped to locate, but nobody can. Any thoughts?

Someone on Twitter was noticing the smell of flowers in that area. Could it be that?

Response by poster: Actually we found a greeter after posting the question. She said it was some type of prairie grass but did not know what kind.

Best answer: Ah! that leads to Prairie dropseed. Can you see anything that looks like that?
