The world-famous High Line park has spawned much development on Manhattan’s West Side since it opened in 2009. Many of the new buildings abutting the elevated park incorporate terraces and roof gardens, but none more creatively or abundantly than 512 West 22nd Street, a new office building designed by COOKFOX. The architects answered a few questions about the building.
