Mexico City Plans Its Own Elevated High Line Park

Mexico City’s planned elevated garden, inspired by Manhattan’s High Line, will traverse two major arteries, allowing citizens to cross from a major metro stop into the metropolis’s most prominent park. (Courtesy of Federal District Public Space Authority )

The new pathway would cross under the second level of one roadway, which has yet to be built. (Federal District Public Space Authority )

The Federal District’s Public Space Authority would like to see the project completed by mid 2012. (Federal District Public Space Authority)

The elevated garden would lead into the area of the park that contains Mexico City’s children’s museum (rendered here). (Federal District Public Space Authority)
