Shared workspace giant WeWork announced Tuesday it would expand further into China, taking on domestic rivals like UrWork in one of the world's most lucrative startup sectors.
The New York-based company, which was valued at around 20 billion U.S. dollars last year, will establish co-working spaces in eight Chinese cities, after establishing a presence in Beijing and Shanghai over the past two years.
The expansion will see WeWork set up shop in startup hub Shenzhen, as well as second-tier cities Xi'an, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Xiamen, Chengdu, Nanjing and Wuhan.
The company, which already has office space in 66 cities worldwide, will also open its first site in Hong Kong's Lan Kwai Fong district.
The focus on the Chinese market can be seen as a bid to tackle fast-growing Chinese rivals on their own doorstep, as companies like Beijing-based UrWork expand in Asia and further afield.
The concept of co-working and office sharing is simple. Companies like WeWork take over empty and often quirky buildings, converting them into workspaces that can be used by small startups, freelancers and entrepreneurs.
Companies who use the space can also benefit from health insurance plans, networking events and social gatherings organized in the shared space.
Coworking has boomed to the extent that unicorn companies like WeWork and UrWork have emerged, with their potential attracting massive investment.
In August, Japan's SoftBank pumped 4.4 billion U.S. dollars into WeWork, earmarking 1.4 billion U.S. dollars for the company's expansion into Asia. That came one month after WeWork China was established as a standalone entity, backed by 500 million U.S. dollars in capital.
WeWork has already established 12 shared workspaces in Beijing and Shanghai, and plans to open its biggest ever location in Shanghai's Xintiandi this year, in a space covering 10 stories.
Despite its financial backing, WeWork's expansion in China will face stiff competition from domestic rivals. UrWork has been valued at around 1.5 billion U.S. dollars, and is already present in 33 first-, second- and third-tier Chinese cities.
Backed by Alibaba Group and Sequoia Capital, UrWork's plans to expand overseas has already seen offices open in Singapore and California, with new locations lined up in London, New York and Southeast Asia.
According to TechCrunch, UrWork is looking to move into 35 global cities in the next three years, and has allotted 500 million U.S. dollars' worth of funding for the Southeast Asian market, investing three million U.S. dollars in Indonesia.
Talking to the Financial Times, UrWork chief executive Ma Daqing has previously said that his company differs from WeWork because it focuses primarily on helping Chinese startups and companies, and its growth overseas is aimed at supporting Chinese entrepreneurs expand in foreign markets.
Nevertheless, a lawsuit launched by WeWork against UrWork in the U.S. last year established the two companies as rivals. WeWork objected to UrWork's name, suggesting it was too similar to its own brand.
WeWork won the case, meaning UrWork will have to operate under another name in the U.S. A statement from WeWork called it an "important victory," while UrWork vowed to continue its expansion in the U.S. despite losing out in court.
Beyond UrWork, WeWork also faces competition from naked Hub, another China-based rival that is focusing heavily on the Southeast Asia market.
At the end of January the naked Group bought a 70-percent stake in Australian co-working company Gravity, as part of the plans to expand to more than 200 locations in Asia and Australia in the next five years.
According to Reuters, naked Hub has 46 locations in China and Vietnam, and is on the edge of sealing a 175-million-US-dollar fundraising round prior to a possible flotation on the Hong Kong stock market.

Yahoo's Little Ad Gap
Page 1 of 1
Is Yahoo missing the "long tail" of advertisers? Or does it have bigger fish to fry?
If the search engines' pay-per-click ad services were restaurants, Google would be McDonalds: fast and cheap; Yahoo would be Chili's: serving a limited number of patrons, offering a wide variety of higher-priced meals and not promising you a table.
Earlier this week, Yahoo broadened access to APIs that Overture used to only make available to partners, while re-branding the Overture division as Yahoo Search Marketing Solutions. But it still doesn't make it easy for tiny publishers or advertisers.
"With Google, your ads are running within 10 minutes. With Overture, it takes a call or an e-mail to a sales rep. There's a bit of a hurdle getting in," said Jupiter Research analyst Gary Stein. (Jupiter Research and internetnews.com both are owned by Jupitermedia.)
The intent of opening the Overture APIs definitely is not Google-style "click-and-a-credit-card" ad placement, Eckart Walther, senior director of product management for Yahoo Search, told internetnews.com.
"This is more [for] a medium-sized company managing thousands of keywords, and you have an internal campaign management system you use to buy media on Yahoo and Overture links. These APIs will let you hook into our advertising system directly."
Walther added that true self-service, pay-per-click advertising is something Yahoo "should" do. Otherwise, could Yahoo find itself on the wrong end of a pay-per-click ad gap?
The APIs show awareness by Yahoo that search engine marketing companies benefit Yahoo, said Andy Beal, vice president of search marketing at WebSourced, a search engine marketing optimization company. "We've been working within the confines of the tools avail to us, which were restrictive," Beal said. "By opening the APIs, Yahoo has given access to search engine marketers so that we can create and develop our own tools to set up and manage new accounts."
Beal said the new tools will also help him understand and analyze results of pay-per-click campaigns, and, he added, "I guess, to send more business to Yahoo."
Yahoo's focus on big layers has served it well. But there's increased awareness of the importance of the revenue opportunities in the "long tail," the overwhelming majority of very small, niche content sites. The long tail is a statistics concept that caught fire thanks to an article by Chris Anderson, executive editor of Wired magazine.
The idea is, simply, that a little bit of revenue from an awful lot of places can add up to big money.
In 2004, Yahoo made more than $3 billion in marketing revenue. Yahoo doesn't separate contributions from its Overture division, which it acquired in 2003. But Gartner analyst Denise Garcia estimates that Overture pay-per-click ads contributed around 20 percent of its revenue in 2002.
Google made $3.189 billion last year; presumably, most of that came from pay-per-click advertising on its own site, partners' sites and the millions of small Web sites and blogs that take advantage of the Google AdSense contextual ad network.
Could Yahoo expand its revenue by serving the long tail of advertisers who might spend a few bucks every month to advertise their handmade baby booties? Could it easily add another couple billion by offering dirt-simple, self-serve ads?
"Its difficult to say how much money might be left on the table," Garcia said. "You can't just say pay-per-click is the way to go. You have to have the partnerships and inventory to do it," Garcia added.
She pointed out that Yahoo has a lot less traffic than Google does. Google also distributes its ads on a wide variety of partners' sites. "In some ways, it's unfair to compare Yahoo to Google in the sense that Google has more unique visitors than Yahoo does, and therefore has more inventory to sell."
Another question is, should Yahoo go after the baby bootie advertisers? Chili's could certainly increase its volume by offering two-buck hamburger take-outs, for example -- but it doesn't.
"Yes, Google captures all of the small advertisers, and Overture has traditionally done better with the bigger advertisers," Stein said. "On the other hand, Google has had a really bad reputation for customer service, whereas Overture has a dynamite reputation. They're very responsive to problems; if you're extremely sophisticated, they let you alone; if you're new, they work with you. That takes a lot of resources, but these are bigger accounts."
At the same time, Garcia said, "Yahoo is doing phenomenally well in selling display advertising." She pointed out that Yahoo offers all sorts of display advertising formats, and it can charge a premium for extras, such as targeting, exclusives and positioning. "It's a nice business model Yahoo has."

Our background includes development steps such as the invention of the world´s first research & development in advertising, or the establishment of the first pure strategy agency in Germany. In the past, we have developed sales strategies for soft drinks for the Brazilian market, have helped to position the German television channel ARD as THE FIRST (Channel), or have helped Germany to go T-Online. We have come up with business areas in industry which today achieve turnover in the millions, and we have undertaken repositioning strategies for groups preparing for a launch on the stock market ... We are aware of the needs of enterprises in a world where they increasingly feel the effects of the global economy. We can help with numerous entrepreneurial development tasks for which no resources are set aside in most organisations.
However, for classically organised corporate and group structures, external innovation and business development is still difficult to outsource, to budget for or even to integrate into the processes. And to reap the benefits of such a range of services, one needs a great deal of trust in advance on the part of the company management ...
We can accommodate you here, in that we describe ourselves as a turnover-oriented consultancy firm. In theory with similar results to those of a conventional marketing-oriented consulting firm - but with the difference that we deliver concrete solutions and recommendations for action, and know how to implement them practically and effectively. BCK has the skills to be able to take responsibility for the complete necessary range of action, including in terms of implementation. In doing so, we are so committed to the objective and the result that we are happy to be able to talk about results-based fees before the start of the project.
Perhaps the diagram will help to locate BCK in your mind where it can be helpful for you, for we see ourselves as loyal management partners with a free spirit and analytical instinct. Committed to the management and equipped with the knowledge and skills to be your generalist confidants on all levels of product, brand and corporate development. (If we should ever be unable to keep to this, we shall tell you straight away.)
A market is best defended in the same way in which it was conquered - through continual innovation. The hidden champions of the 21st century have been world market leaders for an average of 21 years, because they repeatedly introduced innovations.

When I fill a container with hot water it is milky, but after a few minutes, the water in the container clears up. What causes this?
Complaints of discolored water are commonly blamed on water heaters and storage tanks, but in fact, it is a rare occurrence for today's high quality glass lined tanks to have a lining failure significant enough to allow water to contact enough bare metal to discolor the contents of even a small tank. The most common cause of "rusty" water is a non-toxic iron reducing bacteria, scientifically termed Crenothrix, Leptothrix, and Gallionella. Water heaters and storage tanks usually require new anode rods as presence of iron bacteria contributes to premature anode failure. The simplest treatment available is shock-chlorination of the system. This is a surface treatment, and often requires repeated trials in heavily infected systems. The chlorination of a system requires that you follow each step explicitly to avoid an un-treated portion of the piping system from reinfecting another part.
My cold water doesn't smell, what is the solution for this problem?
The most common cause of "smelly water" is a non-toxic sulfate reducing bacteria, scientifically termed Divibrio Sulfurcans. This bacteria often enters the water system through construction or a break in ground piping. The bacteria creates the energy it needs to survive by converting sulfate (SO4) to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas you smell in the water. Hydrogen sulfide gas is distinctive because of its rotten egg-like stench. Its presence can severely affect the taste as well as the odor of the water. The simplest treatment available is the shock-chlorination of the system. This is a surface treatment, and often requires repeated trials in heavily infected systems. The chlorination of a system requires that you follow each step explicitly to avoid an un-treated portion of the piping system from reinfecting another part. Longer lasting solutions include chlorination or aeration of the water supply.
There are several things that could cause low water pressure, including a partially closed or malfunctioning shut off valve, a crimped water line, or deposits that gather in older galvanized pipes. If your neighbors have strong water pressure, the problem is most likely between the water meter and your home. our qualified plumbing technician will be able to identify the problem and explain your options.
A broken water line out in the yard may include an excessively high water bill, puddles in your yard or the sound of running water when no faucets or appliances are using water. Our plumbing technicians can "see" inside your pipes with Video Camera Drain Inspection technology. We can pinpoint the problem without needless trial and error destruction of working pipes. In many cases we can fix the problem right away and save you money.
You may be able to insert an Allen wrench into the bottom of the disposer and "crank" it to help free up a jam. If this doesn't work, DON'T USE IT! You could cause serious damage to the disposal motor or even your home electrical system. If the problem is actually do to a jam Drano® will most likely unclog the drain. Drano® has been around for decades and in my experience has never failed to unclog a drain. If all else fails The Plumbers Inc can usually fix a jammed up garbage disposal. If it can't, then it will need to be replaced.
Recently my water bills appear to be rather high. None of the faucets appear to leak. What else could contribute to a high water bill?
You may want to check to see if a toilet is leaking. First, check the water level to ensure that water is not overflowing the tank by way of the overflow pipe. This is the pipe in the middle of the tank. It has small tubing connected to it. If water is running into the overflow, adjust the fill valve to stop the flow approximately one inch below the top of the overflow tube or to the water level mark stamped on the side of the tank. Second, put a few drops of food coloring into the tank to test the flush valve mechanism. If the water in the bowl changes color within 15 minutes, this is an indication that water is leaking into the toilet bowl and that the ball or flapper needs to be replaced.
We are constantly running out of hot water. After a five-minute shower, the water starts to turn cold. This change occurred quite recently?
There are two possibilities. First, the dip tube has broken off. This is a tube that forces incoming water to the bottom of the tank so that hot water will be drawn off of the top. When the dip tube breaks, cold water entering the tank mixes with the hot water and cools it down. This can occur in both gas and electric models. Second, if your water heater is electric, the lower element that heats the water may not be operating properly, thus only the upper half of the tank will heat up. The cause of this problem could be a bad element or a thermostat malfunction. This type of problem should be evaluated by a qualified technician.
When the federal government mandated that new toilets use no more than 1.6 gallons per flush, manufacturers had to develop a toilet that would achieve this but that would also flush properly (clear the bowl) and carry the waste to the city sewer or septic system. Some of the early models did not do this properly. Since then, the complaints have forced the manufacturers to develop new ways of flushing toilets. One new way is the use of a pressurized toilet tank. This model looks like a regular toilet, but it has a pressure tank inside. When flushed, it works like a commercial toilet. A large surge of water enters the bowl and clears the bowl of any waste. These toilets work well, but are not as quiet as a conventional model.
When considering a new fixture for your home such as a toilet, we recommend that you choose a fixture made by one of the major manufacturers, such as American Standard, Kohler or Eljer.
I hearing a whistle sound that seems to be connected to the plumbing system. It comes and goes at times, but I can't find the cause of it?
The sound you are describing is usually caused by a toilet fill valve that is slowly leaking. To locate the leaking toilet, remove the lid of each toilet tank and adjust the fill valve mechanism until it stops. Once you have found the toilet causing the problem, repair or replace the fill valve.
Rumbling sounds coming from a water heater are an indication that sediment has built up on the bottom of the water heater. What you are hearing is water that is trapped in the sediment and is boiling. This is an indication that the water heater is not operating efficiently. Sediment will not allow the heat to transfer to the water in the tank, which sends the heat up the flue. You may try draining a few gallons of water off the bottom of the water heater tank. This is done by attaching a drain hose to the valve at the bottom of the tank. Allow it to drain for about five minutes. WARNING: HOT WATER IS DANGEROUS. DISCHARGE THE WATER INTO A FLOOR DRAIN, LAUNDRY TUB OR BATHTUB. HOT WATER WILL KILL YOUR GRASS IF DISCHARGED ONTO THE LAWN. HOT WATER WILL CRACK A TOILET BOWL IF DISCHARGED INTO THE TOILET. Many newer models of water heaters have a new feature that prohibits the buildup of sediment in the tank. If your heater is an older model, it may be cost effective to replace the water heater if the buildup is severe.
Our kitchen drain has taken longer than usual to drain during the past year. Should we have it cleaned?
Dishwashers are designed to keep enough water in the unit at the end of each cycle in order to keep the drying element from burning up. It's very similar to a water heater element. If a lot of water stays in the sump the drain could be clogged. A partially clogged air gap will do the same thing. The air gap is the little chrome dome on the kitchen counter.
The unsightly buildup is mineral deposits. To remove these deposits from the showerhead, take a plastic bag and pour a cup of vinegar in it. Place the bag over the showerhead and use a twist tie to hold it in place overnight. In the morning, remove the bag and use an old toothbrush to gently scrub off the deposits. You might be able to remove the aerators from the faucets and allow them to soak in the vinegar overnight.
If not disturbed, the roots will completely fill the pipe with multiple hair-like root masses at each point of entry. The root masses quickly become clogged with toilet tissue, grease and other debris flowing from homes and businesses to the main sewer, resulting in reduced flow and slowed drains. A complete blockage may occur if the roots are not removed and root growth impeded.
Once roots have entered the pipe, they continue to grow and expand, exerting considerable pressure at the crack or joint. The increased pressure often breaks the pipe and may result in total collapse, which requires repair or replacement.
Some pipe materials are more susceptible to root intrusion than others. Clay tile pipe is easily penetrated and damaged by tree roots. Concrete pipe and PVC pipe may also allow root intrusion, but to a lesser extent than clay pipe. PVC pipe usually has fewer joints and the tightly fitted joints are less likely to leak as a result of settlement around the pipe
I am getting a foul odor from a bathroom in the basement. We hardly ever use this bathroom except when we have company. This is embarrassing. What can we do?
Plumbing systems are designed to prevent foul odors from entering the house by means of the trap attached to fixtures. Traps contain water to seal out foul odors; if the water seal evaporates, the odors enter the house. To solve this problem, pour a bucket of water in each trap, sink, shower and floor drain. This will prevent the odors from entering the house.
Foul odors occur from a buildup of food debris within the disposer. To eliminate this odor, place ice cubes and lemon or orange peels in the disposer and run for 30 seconds. Next, squirt a little liquid dish detergent into the disposer while it is still running. Finally, run cold water for about 30 seconds to rinse all the debris away.
Tankless water heaters can be a great option for a home. They can vary in the features they have depending on the brand and model. Some may offer features such as built-in circulation pump and buffer tank or automatic water leak detection. They offer lower emissions, higher efficiency to assist with conserving energy, and are very small in comparison to a tank style heater so you can save space too. You will find that although the initial cost of a tankless heater installation is considerably higher, the overall lifetime cost of the heater will be less. (purchase, installation, and energy cost per day for the life of the heater) There are a few less desirable features that can be identified about them as well. They are limited in the amount of hot water that can be produced at one time. They may also take just a little longer to actually heat the water because it doesn't start heating until you turn the faucet on.
For more information regarding the size and type of tankless water heater that would best fit your home please call our office and ask to talk with one of our plumbers.
Hard water is water that contains an appreciable quantity of dissolved minerals (like calcium and magnesium). Soft water is treated water in which the only ion is sodium.
As rainwater falls, it is naturally soft. However, as water makes its way through the ground and into our waterways, it picks up minerals like chalk, lime and mostly calcium and magnesium. Since hard water contains essential minerals, it is sometimes the preferred drinking water, not only because of the health benefits, but also the flavor. On the other hand, soft water tastes salty and is sometimes not suitable for drinking. So why, then, do we soften our water?
When it boils down, the major difference between hard and soft water can best be seen while doing household chores. Hard water is to blame for dingy looking clothes, dishes with spots and residue and bathtubs with lots of film and soap scum. Even hair washed in hard water may feel sticky and look dull. Hard water can take a toll on household appliances as well, using up more energy. The elements of hard water are to blame for all of these negative factors, as soap is less effective due to its reaction to the magnesium and calcium. The lather is not as rich and bubbly.

Happy 4/20! To celebrate the dankiest day of the year, we'll be taking a mini tour through the elevated design of the contemporary cannabis industry. Have you ever wondered how people in those states do things? How do weed stores work? Or why is vaping such a thing? How do you accurately label recreational drugs? Are all bongs doomed to be ugly? Over the next few High Design posts, I'll do my best to lift some answers out of the haze and spark more interest in America's fastest growing industry. We'll talk to budtenders at cutting edge cannabis shops, break out product trends and failures, and talk about where weed needs design most in 2017.
After years of slow breakthrough in the legalization of recreational marijuana, 2016 was a turning point for public vending, and it has skyrocketed the popularity and profitability of cannabis. As you'd expect, savvy designers have been along for the ride. Weed churned over $7.4 billion in sales in 2016—and America could only claim five recreationally legalized states until the November election, when it added four more... where vending is still only legal on paper. Oregon alone sold over 11,000 pounds of cannabis in the first three months of 2016 and netted the state over $5.5 billion in tax revenue by year end. Investments in cannabis are crackling, and the value of the national industry is estimated to top $24 billion by 2020. Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I doubt Pantone's "Greenery" came out of nowhere, man. It's a lucrative niche to work in, and it owes a good deal to good design.
If the retail trends of the last two years are any indicator, working in cannabis is more than just lucrative —it's a big career booster for product designers. Local shops are more than a pickup site for a score, they're increasingly positioning themselves at the intersection of technology, design, and user education.
While the history of microbreweries offers several easy corollaries for product specialization, cannabis retail has the unique feature of bringing previously illegal and underrepresented products and desires to light and using design to redefine the market itself. If anything, the pivot in cannabis design harkens how sex toy designers and stores worked to redefine customer comfort with better product design and branding, beautiful displays, bright lighting, and knowledgeable female staff.
Legal status has sparked a concerted push for rebranding everything from familiar pipes to the buying experience to the high itself. In such a rapidly opening field, distinctive new products are extremely in demand. Once rebellious, silly and secretive, the cannabis industry is hungry for classier tools, inoffensive packaging, and professional grade problem solving.
This also means the chances of a design being picked up are unusually high. Though not a tiny industry, its newness, innovation and powerful profitability currently make it easier to get new product ideas all the way to production.
Additionally, with the logistics of how folks are getting high shifting to brick and mortar stores and an explosion of delivery methods, new and old users are both likely to encounter new products. This means lower brand loyalty and fewer deeply ingrained patterns of use. It's a thrilling time for designers hoping to make a splash.
Thanks to tricky federal laws against cross-state trade on some but not all products, cannabis is a highly localized supply chain. This means that for now, markets are fairly self-contained, which can be a great boon for developing a brand or following, or a design problem to push against (with oversight from your legal team).
The mounting pile of positive medical applications and less psychoactive CBD varieties maintains a wide range of target users and angles for designers to consider. The mix of legal constraints, cultural cache, personal haptics, and enormous range of use make problem solving around cannabis particularly interesting.
The design questions range from fun to serious, with as much or little tie-dye as you like. Are traditional pipes off-putting for first time users? Is anyone making glass pipes and bongs tasteful enough for your mom to use? Which stash boxes are cool enough to leave on a desk? How do you make childproof containers for people with limited mobility? Can homegrowing be made easier?
With an increasingly destigmatized product, appealing to traditional stoner culture is just one tiny fragment of the cannabis design puzzle.
Coming up in the series, we'll tour beautiful weed shops and explore how they work, talk with budtenders and vape designers, and take a look at some of the most important cannabis-adjacent design innovations. While you may still be thrilled to score a word of mouth baggie and enjoy it in a glass pipe your brother forgot when he left for college… smart designers have been hard at work to build better and more attractive ways to partake. And we're going to talk about it.
Stay tuned and stay safe!

The Challenges of a Senior Move
A senior move can be one of the most complicated, challenging and frustrating experiences of a lifetime, especially if the seniors are moving from a home they have lived in for decades . . . a home that has collected treasures, memories, books and paperwork for years.
What folks are facing
A couple years ago, some dear friends, Mary and Ben (not their real names), were preparing to move from their Bellevue, Washington home of 50 years into a smaller space. They were excited to make this transition, and looked forward to not having to deal with yard work and house repairs. The thought of living on a single level also appealed to Mary, who had undergone a recent knee replacement. What they were not prepared for was facing the amount of stuff they had collected over the years.
They were not hoarders and one afternoon, as Mary and I were beginning the process, she commented that they really didn't have that much stuff to deal with. Every spring she had filled up several donation bags for charity and had always found plenty to donate to the church rummage sale. She had always willingly disposed of broken items. However, over the years they had managed to fill every closet, cupboard, and piece of furniture with treasures. Filing cabinets were full of travel brochures and memorabilia. Tax forms and receipts for the last 50 years were carefully filed in other cabinets. Drawers of the children's treasures filled their now abandoned bedrooms.
This is a fairly typical senior move.
Boxes of very usable things reached the ceilings in each closet. Mary had always been a careful shopper, purchasing items only when they were on sale and she had a collection of lovely items that were intended as future gifts; well-cared for clothing filled the closets. It was great stuff,but the problem was that through the years she and Ben had accumulated way too much!
It took months for their committed family and friends to go through these possessions and help them decide what to take, donate, discard, and pass on to family. When the job was finished, they hosted a little party for the loyal workers. Ben thanked everyone, and got a bit teary when he concluded that he just didn't know what they would have done without these wonderful people.
We all want to think that we can handle this sort of project. After all, it is "our stuff" to deal with. In reality, a senior move is usually more than they can handle alone. Mary and Ben were fortunate to have a large number of family and friends to help them sort, move and dispose of their things. Not everyone is so lucky. Families are scattered over the country these days, and friends are often already spread too thin.
That's where Moving Forward comes in.
Call us to learn how we can help you and/or your family cope with a senior move anywhere in the Seattle metro area.
Katie Munoz, Owner and President of Moving Forward also holds great, free events that will give you great insights for organizing, decluttering, and completing a downsizing move. Check our Events page frequently to see when and where the next one will be hosted.

In New York City an organisation called "Friends of the High Line" are in the process of converting a previously abandoned freight viaduct that runs along the lower west side of Manhattan from a 'lost space' to a new elevated park reserved for pedestrians. The idea is not new, there is currently another elevated park in Paris called The Promenade Plantée. The project is designed to increase the available parkland in the city by turning what some have considered a blight into a unique advantage, looking through some past entries about this online it is clear that there was much debate and a serious push to have the whole structure removed. Link I for one am happy that the friends of the high line have been successful in getting the go ahead to convert the structure to an urban promenade. Unique parks and themaintenance of structures of historical significance is a big plus to me.
Structures like this begin to make us relate to the city in further levels, most people are only used to considering a city from the ground level, sure we have subways and underground structures, and sky walks in some urban areas but most don't really consider them when thinking of the strata of an area. Subways are underground and you don't really see anything so its easy to have no awareness of the city that you pass through on your way between your usual stations and sky walks tend to insulate us from the city by being too much like the interior of the buildings they connect. Elevated walkways like thePromenade and the future high line allow us to experience the city from above while still being in contact with its sights and smells, I have a feeling that once completed this project will become a valued part of the neighbourhoods it connects.
The High line has a specific vision;
Friends of the High Line believes the historic High Line rail structure offers New Yorkers the opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind recreational amenity: a grand, public promenade that can be enjoyed by all residents and visitors in New York City. When the High Line is converted to public open space, you will be able to rise up from the streets and step into a place apart, tranquil and green. You will see the Hudson River, the Manhattan skyline, and secret gardens inside city blocks as you've never seen them before. You will move between Penn Station and the Hudson River Park, from the convention center to the Gansevoort Market Historic District, without meeting a car or truck. The High Line will be a promenade—a linear public place where you will see and be seen. You will sense New York's industrial past in the rivets and girders. You will perceive the future unrolling before you in an artfully designed environment of unprecedented innovation. It will be yours—public in the truest sense of the word. Public dollars helped build it in the 1930s. Public legislation empowers us to make it a place anyone can visit. It will be proof New York City no longer casts aside its priceless transportation infrastructure but instead creates bold new uses for these monuments to human power and ambition. source
