Delft-based architecture firm Mecanoo has unveiled designs to transform a disused railway and dyke in Taichung, Taiwan into a vibrant linear park. Dubbed the Taichung Green Corridor, the project will reuse the former rail that traverses Taichung’s downtown and stretches over a mile in length. The project aims to preserve the area’s strong historic character while spurring urban revitalization and improving the area’s biodiversity. Set to begin construction later this year into next year, the Taichung Green Corridor will offer over a mile of partially elevated greenway integrated with gardens, outdoor exercise areas, playgrounds, a sculpture park, plazas and more.
