NYC High Line Park and Rail Trail —
The High Line Park, opened in 2009, is a 1.45-mile-long elevated linear park, greenway and rail trail. "It was an inspiration that ricocheted around the world. Just as Frank Gehry's Bilbao Guggenheim made every city in the world want to do it, suddenly the High Line alerted people to the potential of rundown bits of industrial infrastructure which could be transformed form liabilities into assets," said Sudjic.
