I remember last semester I try to find some good under freeway designs,but I didn't found any good one. This is Mexico City's High Line Park, I think this is a successful project that create an amazing example for public reused space in the city.This design was not only have the functional connection for pedestrains and bicycles, but also considered the aesthetic factors.
Mostly, the under freeway part is not looks very well, so I think for the under freeway design might have a lot of potential for designers. Details could not only shows the designer's soul, but also effects the whole city's beauty and the overall urban planning. For example, in this design I see the designer have fully thinking about the functional activities and landscaping factors which totally changed the scenery of under-freeway. Also, the paving materials, the shrubs, and the hanging plants that the designer choose was very helpful to change the ugly scenery before. All in all, I think it is necessary to pay more attention to the harmony and unity in urban design and individual design to meet the needs of different person's view of aesthetics and the overall urban development.
