Description

Joel Sternfeld's Walking the High Line is a poignant and visually stunning book that captured the essence of New York City's beloved elevated railroad ruin. In 2001, as the World Trade Center still smoldered, Sternfeld began photographing the High Line in every season, inviting New Yorkers to experience its beauty. The book's creation was a timely intervention, with publisher Gerhard Steidl and Sternfeld working together to design a vision for the park that would eventually become a wildly successful destination. This revised edition features nine additional photos, a larger format, and an updated timeline, offering a fresh perspective on this iconic urban landscape. With its unique blend of photography and storytelling, Walking the High Line is a must-have for anyone interested in urban planning, architecture, or the power of art to transform public spaces.
