Now the High Line’s designer hopes to give London its own green thread, after being chosen to create the Camden Highline. James Corner was picked last week as the lead architect for the structure, a linear park on three-quarters of a mile of railway viaducts running from Camden to Kings Cross, which he believes will give London a similar boost after the trials of Covid and Brexit.

Field Operations, which was behind the New York High Line that inspired the Camden project, will lead on the £35 million elevated park stretching between Camden Gardens and York Way. The project, which was started by Camden Town Unlimited in 2017, will create a walking route eight metres above the ground using three quarters of a mile of disused railway. The first phase of the scheme is scheduled to open in 2024.
