It’s interesting to see the genesis of the highline, but it has become a total tourist trap, and they’ve closed off all entrances except one during covid. Doesn’t really feel like a public park.

“In 2004, my studio came into the orbit of two inspired citizen activists who launched a campaign to save a 1.5 mile stretch of derelict infrastructure and convert it into a public park.”
Wasn’t even looking at the screen, and immediately knew it was the High Line.
New York City does that to you.

This was beautiful! Such an amazing insight to the level of work that goes unrecognized. These great people work behind the scenes for the people, reminding the ruthless rich ”hey, what about the people?”. Even if we only get a strip or a square we know you will make the most of it for all of us! Much love and respect

The wisest thing that should be on every wise individual list is to invest in different stream of income that don’t depend on the government to bring money especially now that the pandemic is hitting economy pretty hard.

it was a pleasure to listen who did and proyect this great park, high line, I had learn about this proyect few years ago an use as one of my resources to developed one of my proyects in my carrer- I study architecture- it was great see how a old construction can be use to integrate and give life at teh city especially right now, when our cities continues expand and it looks like how goverments forgot the importance of the public space and how important is the nature for us.

I think she’s a bit of a dinosaur as far as her ideas go, but the pinciples and practice of the Highline are excellent. I think we need to plan for cities with at most 40% of their current population and these things will be more than public spaces as she conceives the term. They will be farms and living spaces.
