Architecture New York’s High Line heads for Camden and Richard Rogers bows out in gravity-defying style

The landscape architects behind the High Line in New York are preparing to repeat the formula in London. A team led by US-based James Corner Field Operations has been selected to transform just under a mile of disused railway into an elevated public park. Connecting King’s Cross with Camden Town, the Camden Highline will combine planting areas and viewpoints with elements of culture and play. The designers are now consulting with the local community to develop the proposal in detail (camdenhighline.com).
