High Level Line

Title Slide

Aerial view of High Level Line - a proposed connection between Edmonton's two central cultural cores.

As part of the year of research, a group of young professionals investigated each character area along the 4km line.

The interface with the surrounding urban fabric was investigated and global precidents were considered.

After the idea was fully developed, highlevelline.com was launched as the main tool to start a public conversation.

Renderings were created that showed the potential of the line. Here, a proposed park at the north end of the bridge.

The potential throughout all seasons was considered. High Level Line would be embraced by Edmontonians all year.

On the south side, a proposed path meanders through a naturalized landscape and wetland area.

Social media was leveraged as another tool to share the proposed vision of High Level Line. Shown: Instagram

A press release was sent following the website launch. The story was picked up by print, TV, online and radio outlets.

Edmonton's Mayor, Don Iveson, loved the proposal and shared his support on his social media channels.

High Level Line

High Level Line Society

Reliant les deux pôles culturels et les huit quartiers centraux d’Edmonton, High Level Line est un sentier réinventé qui emprunte un corridor ferroviaire sous-utilisé traversant le cœur de la ville. Cette proposition spontanée de jeunes professionnels passionnés a inspiré une discussion à l’échelle de la ville et lui a donné l’élan nécessaire pour le concrétiser.
