Summary:
As an elevated rail line, designed to lift freight trains serving the Hudson River docks above street level circulation, The High Line was originally constructed as material infrastructure for an industrial city. It was closed in 1960s and stood abandoned for the next forty years. In this time organic debris accumulated and decayed, and seeds landed on the newly forming soil creating a meadow on the derelict railbed. This microcosmic biome then also became a heterotopic, other space, in the social ecology of the city as an efflorescence of new art forms and underground subcultures flourished in the evacuated post-industrial spaces of Chelsea. These processes would unfold as New York City was being transformed into a global center in an emerging political-economy defined by the integration of finance capital with media and information industries. In this, marginal spaces of the kind that developed in Chelsea, and the cultures that create them, became important sources of new aesthetic and cultural innovation, that offer an exploitable social ground from which to extract semiotic value. As the Bloomberg administration gave shape to this new regime, a project was initiated to convert the High Line into a publicly accessible, linear park. This would be realized through a convoluted process in which the manifold tensions and contradictions of the postmodern city would be dramatically played out and the disjunctions between ideal image regimes and the reality of the material substrates that support them would be brought to light, if only to be newly obscured. The High Line urban park has been both heralded as a definitive model for new urban development, and denounced as a driver, or at least a morbid symptom, of devastating gentrification, and the destructive financialization of urban space. This text, originally published in 2015 as part of the Deconstructing the High Line anthology, edited by Mark Linder and Brian Rosa, tracks a collection of interconnected historical treads that converge in the reconstruction of the High Line, and situates the project within architectural discourse and practice, and social and material conditions with which it struggles to engage.

Summary:
Architecture et technologies sont étroitement liées bien qu'évoluant à des rythmes différents. Leurs relations sont donc complexes et leurs rebords ponctuent l'histoire de l'architecture. Malgré leurs discours rationalistes, les mouvements modernes n'ont jamais vraiment su ou pu conjuguer l'un et l'autre, une dichotomie qui aujourd'hui se perpétue; la pratique architecturale n'intègre en effet que très ocasionnelement les acquis de technologies toujours plus performantes, celles notamment concernant les économies d'énergies, l'autosuffisance et le respect d'environnement naturels. En témoigne l'extraordinaire indigence de formulations architecturales incorporant les systèmes de capteurs solaires ou celles des projets à prétentions écologiques. Ces indigences ne sont pas rédhibitoires. Des architectes se sont intéressés à ces technologies dites douces et les ont saisies pour développer des projets d'entités autosuffisantes, de bâtiments à haute qualité environnementale. Les formulations en sont souvent hétérogènes, parfois spectaculaire mais jamais gratuites qui annoncent la maturité d'une autre génération d'architectes, l'éclosion d'une architecture susceptible de mieux répondre aux préoccupations d'une époque cherchant à préserver son avenir. C'est là le sens de cet ouvrage dont le contenu montre que si la discipline d'architecture exprime son temps, elle sait aussi anticiper. ////////////////////////////////// Whilst France’s contemporary architecture is highly regarded throughout the world, her architects have hardly been leading protagonists in the debate on ecological building. The developments featured in this book, however, should serve to correct this impression. Between 1999- 2002 Electricité de France (EDF) initiated an ambitious research programme to bring together first-class architects and innovative technologies involving renewable energy, strategies to reduce energy consumption, newly developed software programs to support ecologically oriented architectural design etc. The goal was to create sustainable and aesthetically pleasing architecture. This book documents the buildings, some of which have already been realized, resulting from this experiment which attracted participation from both established and also younger architects. Amongst those included are Jean-Yves Barrier, Gilles Bouchez, François Chochon, Adrien Fainsilber, Jacques Ferrier, Manuelle Gautrand, Christian Hauvette, Dominique Lyon & Pierre du Besset, Marc Mimram, François Roche, François Seigneur & Sylvie de la Dure, Francis Soler, Mirto Vitart & Jean-Marc Ibos. Marc Emery was Chief Editor of the magazine "Architecture d’Aujourd’hui" and is an expert on the French architectural scene.

Between 1999- 2002 Electricité de France (EDF) initiated an ambitious research programme to bring together first-class architects and innovative technologies involving renewable energy, strategies to reduce energy consumption, newly developed software programs to support ecologically oriented architectural design etc. The goal was to create sustainable and aesthetically pleasing architecture. This book documents the buildings, some of which have already been realized, resulting from this experiment which attracted participation from both established and also younger architects. Amongst those included are Jean-Yves Barrier, Gilles Bouchez, François Chochon, Adrien Fainsilber, Jacques Ferrier, Manuelle Gautrand, Christian Hauvette, Dominique Lyon & Pierre du Besset, Marc Mimram, François Roche, François Seigneur & Sylvie de la Dure, Francis Soler, Mirto Vitart & Jean-Marc Ibos. Marc Emery was Chief Editor of the magazine "Architecture d’Aujourd’hui" and is an expert on the French architectural scene.
