thats far from the only one.

per the friends of the highline site there are many other similar projects in various stages of consideration:


Reading Viaduct, Philadelphia, PA
Bloomingdale Trail, Chicago, IL
Rail Corridor, St. Louis, MO
Harsimus Stem Embankment, Jersey City, NJ
High Bridge, Manhattan/Bronx, NY
Rockaway Beach Greenway, Queens, NY
Hofpleinlijn, Rotterdam, The Netherlands
Highland Railroad Bridge, Poughkeepsie, NY
Florida Keys Overseas Heritage Trail, FL
Stone Arch Bridge and "Bridge 9", Minneapolis, MN
Save Our Steel, Bethlehem, PA

i am sure le promanade plantee in paris and now the high line park in here in ny will inspire at least some of them to move forward!
