Roof Lines

We love the High Line, located in New York, as a spectacular example of a public green space. Set 30 feet in the air, it utilises an old railway line, and has been transformed into an amazing public space. Maybe we will start to see more of this kind of thing popping up in unused spaces in Auckland.

Check it out at www.thehighline.org and if your visiting New York it should be on your list of attractions!
