Location: New York City, US
The High Line is a 1.5-mile long public park built on an abandoned elevated railroad in Manhattan. Its design takes inspiration from the unruly beauty of the ruin as it was slowly reclaimed by nature. The paving system of the walkways is designed so that wild grass and weeds can grow through the cracks.
4. Bay South Garden

Inside this glass-and-steel wonder are cooled conservatories that house Mediterranean plants that otherwise cannot grow in tropical Singapore. There is also an indoor waterfall, cascading levels of vertical planting, a meadow in perpetual flower and walkways above and below the tree canopy. It would be like egg-hunting in a rainforest.
