More than half of London’s households live “too far” from the nearest green space, according to the London Assembly’s environment committee; by the Mayor of London’s estimate, that’s anything more than 440yd away.
In an attempt to remedy this plight in north London, Adam Richards has proposed an ambitious project to create a new “green artery”, making use of an existing derelict railway line currently left to ruin.
The Highline will link Camden and King’s Cross in a new linear public park, rivalling the famous New York High Line, a “park in the sky” (well, 26ft above ground).
