Welcome to the Public Information Exchange (PIE)

“I like the idea of making use of the industrial infrastructure - using it as a catalyst for new real estate development is definitely a positive thing. That is probably less costly than dismantling the whole thing. Was there a study done to look at real estate value increases if the highline was removed versus developing it in this way? Couldn't all those things in the mission statement of revealing that significant part of the city's industrial past be accomplished with keeping only a four block section and landmarking it? Just curious. I live on the west side too, and there are no people of color shown in your renderings - those are my neighbors on 10th! i hope they can use it. thanks! ”
