That’s how urban legends are made
in modern-day New York City.
One year and four months later, Zaha Hadid’s only residential building in New York, completed after her death, is ready and still seeking buyers for its high-end apartments; and the Hudson Yards gigantic development project is almost complete. That neighbourhood will never be the same again.

Wanderlust
This isn’t art…. it is a crime scene…! – exclaimed a woman close beside me as I was taking photos. That may have been the most accurate description of this installation, yet!
On the chillier side of wanderlust, part of the High Line Art commissions.

Walking. Dreaming. Adrift.
Sleepwalker, 2014
Tony Matelli
Bronze, acrylic, paint
The Sleepwalker will be meandering about in a deep sleep until March 2017 on the High Line. In his dream, people walk past giving him strange looks. Some long to touch him. Others are afraid.
I want to dream like the Sleepwalker. Perhaps I do. Perhaps my whole life is but a long sleepwalk. I’ll know when I wake up. Perhaps I never will.
