Adaptive Reuse

Architects often find creative ways to reuse old structures that are no longer in use. Check out how old rail lines were adapted to create New York's High Line and Chicago's 606.

Comments

The uniformity of the trees and plants create a nice place to relax. The space is wide and would be a great place to have a picnic. In addition the height of the planters would provide shade.
