Description

Explore the transformation of Manhattan's West Side with Deconstructing the High Line. This book examines the creation of the High Line, an innovative promenade built on a disused elevated railway. Since its first section opened in 2009, this unique greenway has become one of the most iconic urban landmarks in the world. Readers will learn how this project has exceeded expectations by attracting significant visitors, investment, and property development to the area. The text looks at the High Line as a model for urban redevelopment plans seen across the globe.
