The Highline, New York


Prairie planting in style - a walkway above the city streets on railway tracks now bedecked with wooden slatted sun loungers, a toe-dipping water sheet, wafting auburn-leafed trees, purple Michaelmas daisies amidst the long grasses and just so much more more... stunningly simple detailing and concrete that has never looked so good. A 70's hotel that one moves beneath that feels like the set of a sci-fi movie and the essential naked man post-shower in a window. Just beneath us the Chelsea Market and all that is great about American food - from Amy's Bread to insane cup cakes and then the lovely gluten-free burgers and beers of Friedmans.
