London’s Highline Will Echo Its New York Inspiration, With Local Notes

Hoping to repeat the success of Manhattan’s park, London is transforming a disused rail line, elevated 25 feet above the city’s streets, into its own floating green space.

Like New York’s version, the Camden Highline will be designed by James Corner, occupy a former rail track, and attract selfie-taking tourists. Unlike New York’s, it may not invite a boom of luxury condos.

Camden Highline Brings NYC-Style Rail Park to London

The linear park will transform unused train tracks into green space. But London may avoid the worst criticisms of its Manhattan predecessor.

The man who helped revitalise New York with a linear park on a disused elevated railway hopes to do the same for the UK capital.

The backers of London’s own version of the New York High Line are set to launch a £35 million fundraising campaign to pay for the ambitious project.

The 'park in the sky' is set for a grand opening in 2024.

Latest green project in London's eco-drive will turn almost a mile of tracks turned into a 'park in the sky'.

The park-on-a-bridge dream could be a reality soon.

US studio James Corner Field Operations has won a competition to convert a kilometre-long section of disused railway in central London into "a garden in the sky" named the Camden Highline.

James Corner explores how Covid’s impact on mental health has raised interest in urban landscapes. He designed New York’s High Line and is working on a similar project in Camden.

London is getting its own version of New York’s linear park, The High Line.

The Camden Highline is moving closer to completion, with the winning design for the long-awaited sky park revealed.

Plans to create a walkway along disused railway tracks in north London have been approved by Camden Council.
