    Or maybe, I dunno, the city could stop coddling Manhattan and start realizing that there are other Burroughs that are in desperate need of having simple infrastructure, piping, electricity, subway service (so they can serve Manhattan) and even recycling services brought into the 2st century. But, no, you keep forgetting about the rest of the city, Manhattan's the only part that "matters."

    Why? Because we don't pollute coastal areas enough as is, that's why!

    Or they could just build on artificial islands, like they have been doing in Dubai for awhile now.

    Ah yes, let's all emulate Dubai. That should work out well.

    What they need are retractable stairs and ladders so this can be a long term, renewable, safe haven when the Zombie apocalypse happens.

    I'm so in love with the High Line.


    Even though I live nowhere near it, I've been giving a little bit of money here and there to Friends of the High Line since early on.


    Reclamation in creative ways is what, 10, 20, 100X better than just tearing unique stuff down?


    And on it's own, how great is a park in the air?


    Not to mention that it travels through some of the buildings in the area. If I were a rich man (nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah), I'd buy a condo in one of the buildings it passes through. What a great way to get home!

    While a fantastic idea, they couldn't have found someone who was a smidge better at photoshop?

    Not gonna be too cool when the kids decide to play baseball in the park. There isn't a whole lot of room for error there.
