Camden Highline: The campaign to green the tracks

The popularity of New York's Highline saw other cities scouring maps for disused infrastructure – and Camden was no exception. The discovery of a disused viaduct running between King's Cross and Camden Road sparked the campaign for a Highline. Fast-forward and the design has planning permission and is now fundraising towards the build. We speak to Simon Pitkeathley, CEO of Camden Town Unlimited and CEO of Camden Highline about the journey so far, Georgie Street, Head of Projects at Camden Town Unlimited on the future green loop strategy and Tatiana von Preussen, architect and co-founder of vPPR on how to make the park, which runs along a live set of tracks, accessible and magical.
