Great example of effective reuse and community action in the campaign to save the High Line of NYC
In 1999, when a historic elevated rail line was about to be demolished in NYC, Robert Hammond and Joshua David “raised the flag,” and began a 10-year battle to not only preserve the trestle, but to breathe new life into it.
