Building of the Day: East Midtown Greenway

The East Midtown Greenway (EMG) is a linear park stretching from 53rd to 61st Streets on the East River to close a gap in the nearly continuous 32-mile greenway around Manhattan. Elevated on structure above the river, EMG provides waterfront access where none has existed since the construction of the FDR. A product of multidisciplinary collaboration, EMG offers lush planting, a separated bikeway, gathering spaces and seating, all with spectacular views of the river corridor.

Architect: Stantec
