Today, an exhibit of the preliminary sketches for the High Line park project opens at MOMA. (check out the slide show) Looks like their taking the minimalist approach, as their design philosophy is summed up as...

Keep it wild
Keep it quiet
Keep it slow

Lofty goals (good luck with that stretch near the Lincoln Tunnel) but they certainly picked the right architects for the job. The team of Diller and Scofidio has already had a retrospective at the Whitney. They're responsible for some of the most imaginative designs ever. Check out the Blur Building...a structure basically consisting of a cloud of mist.
