In my Report de Paris, I wrote,
Monday was another day of wandering. This time, we were directed by Marie, owner of La Villa, to the Promenade Plantée, which is a park that sits on an abandoned elevated train track. There are thoughts about doing something similar along the abandoned High Line in Manhattan, and it would be a great thing.
There’s an article from the Times with an update on the High Line.

Wow, that’s an expensive chunk of sidewalk. It will be fun to see the finished result though. The parks are definitely what help to keep all us New Yorkers sane, trapped on this tiny little island.
