Hudson Yards shares rendering of public open space to dispel reports of 700-foot wall

By
"There has never been a wall along the High Line and there will never be a wall," Hudson Yards emphasized on Twitter today in response to reports that a 700-foot wall will turn the next phase of development into a veritable gated community. Plans for the Western Yard always included paving over the remaining tracks with a deck that would slope down toward the High Line, but last week, it was reported that developer Related Companies was floating around an idea that would have the deck slope up instead to accommodate a parking garage underneath. It would also essentially wall off the new development's green space and overshadow the High Line. However, Hudson Yards continued in its series of Tweets, "We have always shared the vision that the Western Yard should include a great public open space."
