最近，景观事务所Mathews Nielsen公布了将曼哈顿125街走廊改造成供行人享受的郁郁葱葱的街区的计划。人行道坐落于百老汇和哈德逊河之间，该公司重新设计了绿色的仙境和新的人行道。125街走廊的新面貌将反映曼哈顿其他令人兴奋的发展，包括哥伦比亚大学的扩张。场地的改造花费了昂贵的1450万美元，希望它将会使该地区更加友好。改造是对百老汇和哈德逊河之间的街道的再利用，它将创建一个与城市和西部新开发的哈莱姆区皮尔斯公园之间的田园诗般的联系，并鼓励行人利用新的绿色空间。

Mathews Nielsen计划扩大人行道、改善交叉路口，使行人能够步行去公园。该地区还将建造一个种植本土植被的迷你森林，帮助改善该当地的空气质量。在街道周边将分散的布置一些座位，游客可以欣赏河岸景观。除此之外，辅助照明、植物、温室也会将125街转变成城市绿洲。项目还将计划扩大哥伦比亚大学的曼哈顿维尔校区，期待更多学生来利用新的绿色空间。

Landscape architecture firm Mathews Nielsen recently unveiled its plans to revamp Manhattan’s 125th Street Corridor into a lush streetscape for pedestrians to enjoy. The firm re-designed the pedestrian walkway, which sits between Broadway and the Hudson River, to be a green wonderland complete with new sidewalks. The new look of the 125th Street Corridor will reflect other exciting developments in Manhattanville, including the expansion of Columbia University.

At $14.5 million, the West Harlem makeover will be a costly one, but the hope is that it will make the area more visitor-friendly. The revamp, which will reclaim the streets between Old Broadway and the Hudson River, will create an idyllic connection between the city and the newly developed West Harlem Piers Park, encouraging pedestrians to utilize the new green space.

Mathews Nielsen plans to widen the sidewalks and improve crossings to benefit pedestrians walking to the park. The area will also be planted with a mini forest of native trees, to help amp up the air quality in the area. Seating will be scattered around so that visitors can enjoy river views, which will be framed by elevated structures. Additional lighting, plantings and greenery will transform 125th Street into an urban oasis.The project will also precede Columbia University’s plan to expand their Manhattanville campus, anticipating an influx of more students who will take advantage of the new green space.
