A metal walkway lifts off from High Line level, allowing the landscape to fill in below. Visitors are lifted into the shady canopy of a sumac forest. Planting here takes advantage of a cooler, shadier condition between tall buildings, where trees originally grew up once the trains stopped running.
The Disused Elevated Rail Track Set To Become New York's Prettiest Park
THE DISUSED ELEVATED RAIL TRACK SET TO BECOME NEW YORK'S PRETTIEST PARK
A disused railway track looks set to become one of the prettiest parks in New York.
The High Line in west Chelsea is being converted into a park including floating ponds, sundecks and lookout spots over the Hudson River and Manhattan.
The elevated former industrial line had become decrepit and overgrown but thanks to the support of wealthy benefactors and several famous names it is undergoing a transformation into an amazing green space.
With the first phase set to open to the public later this month (June), the park should span 22 blocks once it's all open in 2010.
Stretching 1.45 miles, up to 30ft high and only 60ft wide, the line runs along Manhattan's West Side, from Gansevoort Street, in the Meatpacking District, through Chelsea to 34th Street.
Having last carried freight in 1980, it was saved from demolition by former mayor Michael Bloomberg and has seen high-profile support from the likes of Donna Karan, Ralph Lauren, Susan Sarandon, Harvey Weinstein and Jerry Seinfeld.
With $50m needed to complete the project, a recent star-studded fundraising gala saw individuals donations of $10m each from media mogul Barry Diller, whose corporate headquarters overlooks th...

Malaysia and Thailand - 2009
PENINSULAR OF PARADISE
The bustling mix of colours, cultures, cuisines and astounding coastlines that Malaysia reveals to those intrepid enough to uncover its charms prove that one of Asia's lesser-visited countries is in fact one of its most hidden treasures.
First colonized by the Portuguese, Dutch, and then the British, Malaysia preserves the moment in time in which West first met East. Towns such as the former Portuguese port of Melaka and the old British stronghold of Georgetown on the island of Penang are testament to Malaysia's rich historical past that so easily merges with the modern vivacity and energy of present-day Asia.
The raw charm of modern Malaysia - busy, animated, alive with colours, sounds and people - reveal that the country is truly at the crossroads of Asia. The historical confluence of cultures, flavours, and religions evident in the mix of ethnic Chinese, Malay, Indian and Muslim cultures combine to create a Babel of exotic architecture, cuisines and languages.
Malaysia's modern day capital, Kuala Lumpur, is a heady melange of bright lights, modern skyscrapers, traffic jams and onion-shaped Mosque domes. The city's iconic Petronas Towers watch over the brightly coloured headscarves of local women going to market in Little India, the exotic smells of Cantonese food stalls in the thick humid air of Chinatown, and the cries of small street side traders selling yellow, pimpled durians - the national fruit. Malaysia's national flag of bright red and blue primary colours blows in the wind along Merdaka Square, with its beautiful English Tudor-style buildings and green lawn - a sharp juxtaposition to the colonial days of the past. Walking along the shabby yet charming streets, alive w...

The Burj Dubai - the world's tallest skyscraper under construction

EXCLUSIVE pictures of the Burj Dubai - the world's tallest skyscraper
**Important**
MUST CREDIT PICTURES BY DAVID HOBCOTE/REX FEATURES
The Burj Dubai is already the tallest man-made structure on Earth, despite being incomplete.
And these rare and exclusive images by photographer David Hobcote show the jaw-dropping scale of the project.
Mr Hobcote took the pictures from a helicopter he had personally chartered as a treat for his son. And his stunning images could be the last unofficial pictures as officials are expected to introduce a 3-mile no-fly zone as a precaution against terrorism.
Developers are keeping the final height of the tower a secret due to competition from other buildings under construction or proposed; however, figures released by a contractor on the project have suggested a height of around 818m (2,684 ft) - although it could be anything up to 950m (3,117 ft).

The interior will be decorated by Giorgio Armani, with a 175 room Armani Hotel occupying many of the floors and a further 144 luxury residential suites getting the designer's touch. Floors 17 to 108 will have 800 private apartments, which, according to the developer, sold out within eight hours of going on sale.

*EXCLUSIVE* Pictures of the Burj Dubai - the World's Tallest Skyscraper
EXCLUSIVE PICTURES OF THE BURJ DUBAI - THE WORLD'S TALLEST SKYSCRAPER
*Important* MUST CREDIT PICTURES BY DAVID HOBCOTE/REX FEATURES
You'd have to have a head for heights to be adding the finishing touches to this building.
The Burj Dubai is already the tallest man-made structure on Earth, despite being incomplete.
And these rare and exclusive images by photographer David Hobcote show the jaw-dropping scale of the project.
Mr Hobcote took the pictures from a helicopter he had personally chartered as a treat for his son. And his stunning images could be the last unofficial pictures as officials are expected to introduce a 3-mile no-fly zone as a precaution against terrorism.
Developers are keeping the final height of the tower a secret due to competition from other buildings under construction or proposed; however, figures released by a contractor on the project have suggested a height of around 818m (2,684 ft) - although it could be anything up to 950m (3,117 ft).
That would see it dwarf Taiwan's Taipai 101 Tower (509m (1,670 ft)) and Malaysia's Petronas Towers (452m (1,483 ft)). The spire - itself expected to be over 200m (700 ft) tall - will be visible 60 miles away
The interior will be decorated by Giorgio Armani, with a 175 room Armani Hotel occupying many of the floors and a further 144 luxury residential suites getting the designer's touch. Floors 17 to 108 will have 800 private apartments, which, according to the developer, sold out within eight hours of going on sale.
An outdoor swimming pool will be located on the 78th floor of the tower, while corporate offices and suites will fill most of the remaining floors, except for a 123rd ...

NEW ORLEANS: MAKE IT RIGHT PROJECT - AERIAL VIEW
7 January 2008 - New Orleans, Louisiana - The rusting Claiborne Ave Bridge can be seen over the Industrial Canal with the Crescent City Connection, or Twin Span away in the distance. Brad Pitt envisioned 'Make it Right,' inviting architects' from all over the world to submit plans to help rebuild the Lower 9th ward. The 'Pink Project' in association with Graft architects of Los Angeles placed pink structures throughout the neighbourhood to help draw attention to the plight of the area.

Arthur Duckett from Somerset with his giant bullock Field Marshall.
Field Marshall the Giant Charolais Bull, Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset, Britain - 04 Dec 2007
The farmer who brought us Britain's biggest bullock has found another record breaker - measuring 6ft 3in tall.
Arthur Duckett, 78, reckons massive Field Marshall, his six-year-old Charolet bull, weighing in at 1,360 kilos will be crowned the nations biggest. Arthur, a farmer, from Burnham-on-sea, Somerset, immediately saw the bull's potential, and said it will put on 300 kilos in the next year. He bought the white bullock two years ago and decided to keep it as a pet when he realised it was a one-off.
Two years ago Arthur and his wife Helen broke records with their 6ft 5in bull Colonel, who weighed 3,500lbs. The Colonel and Field Marshall are kept in a 22-acre field on Arthur's farm, and is in good company as he shares the plot with a 5ft 6in tall Highland steer called The Captain. 717981h
