Step right up and get your own Highline


Every city wants a Highline...and that makes a lot of sense. Take derelict train tracks, add $172 million dollars and out pops over $2 billion dollars in private investment. What’s not to like? An architect who helped bring big community dreams to life says who the real winners are. By the way, if you think that your city should have its own Highline, Open Spaces Sacred Places wouldn’t be a bad place to start looking for money.
-A program in Minnesota encouraging kids to learn where their food comes from has expanded to over 145 school districts; in five years they have increased participation five fold.
