Full support for Michael Daves.

A group of urban visionaries has developed plans to turn a 60,000-square-foot abandoned trolley terminal beneath New York’s Lower East Side into an enormous, sunlit, subterranean garden. The project is known as Delancey Underground, though many locals have started referring to it as “the Low Line,” in reference to Manhattan’s High Line, a wildly popular urban park that was recently constructed on an abandoned elevated railway.

More about this awesome, high-tech underground park.

fastcompany: For more than a decade, the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority has treated the Atlantic as its very own graveyard, tossing thousands of old subway cars off a barge to rust away on the ocean floor. An environmental crime? Hardly. The program creates habitats for marine life from Georgia to Jersey and gives New York’s aging subway cars a vibrant (and free!) retirement home. Now, New York photographer Stephen Mallon has captured the MTA’s artificial reef program in a gobstopping collection of stills that look like what you’d get if you combined an Ed Burtynsky series with the freeze frames of The Matrix and the train porn of The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (without the agro hostage situation). We’ve got lots of details on the program and a selection of Mallon’s photographs above. Check out the full slideshow over at Co. Design. wow. unreal.
