The High Line
in Random
The High Line opened about two weeks ago and I am thrilled that the City of New York has recycled this abandoned elevated train track into a perspective altering public space. We took a stroll for the second time today. I love the organic/industrial design of the benches that gracefully rise from the concrete. To quote Nicolai Ouroussoff, the architecture critic of The New York Times:
Designed by James Corner Field Operations with Diller Scofidio & Renfro, the first phase of the High Line, which opened on Tuesday, is a series of low scruffy gardens, punctuated by a fountain and a few quiet lounge areas, that unfold in a lyrical narrative and seem to float above the noise and congestion below. It is one of the most thoughtful, sensitively designed public spaces built in New York in years.
