New York Fast Forward: Neil Denari Builds on the High Line
Jun 10, 2008 through Oct 12, 2008


Known for his bold architectural and urban concepts, Los Angeles-based architect Neil Denari is helping to transform New York with the design of his first freestanding building, called HL23 and located on 23rd Street abutting the High Line elevated railway bed. The exhibition brings together models, full-scale building sections, and computer renderings illustrating the design and construction of HL23. Historic and contemporary images of the High Line, which is itself being transformed from an abandoned freight transport line into one of the nation’s most innovative public parks, demonstrates the striking contrast between New York’s industrial past and the transformation of this Chelsea neighborhood into a global center of art and culture.
