The High Line is being designed by Field Operations (landscape architects) and Diller Scofidio + Renfro (architects). Section 1, from Gansevoort Street to 20th Street, is under construction and is projected to open by the end of 2008. Section 2 (20th Street to 30th Street) is projected to open in 2009. A video animation, a slide show of design images, and a new publication, Designing the High Line, are now available.

A four-minute fly-through animation of the design for Sections 1 and 2. The video was made possible by the Trust for Architectural Easements, and produced by Brooklyn Digital Foundry.
