由丹麦建筑团队pinkcloud设计的“第42街绿道”旨在改造美国最具标志性的街道之一，将其变成一个可持续的、充满活力并且是社区主导型的公园。绿道分为11个部分，分别对应于42街的11个地块。每个部分都有各自地块的特点。设计采用模块化系统，灵活而高效：道路方便快捷、区域之间景观选择多样、可承接季节性项目或单一的活动。

西侧的住宅小区旨在鼓励积极健康的生活方式，包含一个城市海滩、运动区以及一个广阔的城市农场。交通枢纽如港务局和中央车站被改造成一个拥有大片草坪的大型开放式艺术画廊，有着充足的座位和一个艺术的旋转策模。办公区变成一个舒缓的区域，配备了安静的客房和绿树小路。绿道电车系统最终将向南延伸到34街，形成了完整的交通循环，连接美国最繁忙的两条道路。

第42街绿道可以产生足够维持自身的能源，同时将多余能量和材料传送到周围环境。沼气，雨水管理，雨水收集和有机废物通过回收被收集到公共空间设施内。绿道的百万平方英尺的新园区空间可以收集2千万加仑的雨水，产生19000兆瓦的电力和超过5万吨的堆肥。

The ’42nd greenway’ is a concept that seeks to transform one of America’s most iconic streets into a sustainable, vibrant, and community-driven park. new york’s rapidly growing population corresponds to a demand for more public space and better transportation in neighborhoods across the city. in light of this, vision 42 presents an opportunity to develop a precedent for urban revitalization, development, and sustainability.

The greenway is divided into eleven sections corresponding to the eleven blocks along 42nd street. Each section responds to the unique characteristics of each block, building upon the history and legacy of 42nd street. A design language based on the proportions of the New York City grid is utilized in the development of the greenway, allowing for a modular system of customized park components to fit within the new grid of the park. Highly flexible yet efficient, this system allows for a diverse variety of design options, easy maintenance, and seasonal or event based programming. This flexibility is further enhanced by an integrated Smartphone app, enabling both guests and neighbors to connect directly to the greenway and actively participate in appropriating their park throughout the seasons. Consequently, the greenway will be world’s largest digitally connected urban ecosystem.

The 42nd street greenway is designed to complement its surroundings. Landmarks such as Times Square, Bryant park and the New York public library contain specific features such as viewing platforms, elevated pedestrian connection paths and sculpture gardens. Residential districts in the west side are designed to encourage an active and healthy lifestyle – containing an urban beach, sports areas, and an extensive urban farm. Transportation hubs such as the port authority and grand central station are transformed into a large open art gallery with vast lawn spaces, plenty of seating, and a rotating curation of art. Office areas become zones of reprieve designed with quiet rooms, focus pods, and tree lined paths. the greenway tram system will eventually extend south into 34th street forming a complete transit loop linking two of the busiest roads in America.

The 42nd greenway is designed to be an energy net-positive park, generating enough resources to sustain it while transferring excess energy and material into its surroundings. Directly influenced by natural ecosystems that foster mutually beneficial co-dependencies, the greenway will be the first sustainably networked park in america, forming a direct connection with the surrounding neighborhood infrastructure. Biogas, storm-water management, solar energy / rain collection, and organic waste recycling are integrated within the amenities of the public space. The greenway’s one million square feet of new park space will collect over twenty million gallons of rainwater; generate nineteen thousand megawatts of electricity, and over fifty thousand tons of compost. This fully self-sustaining park is directly connected to adjacent infrastructure; transferring its excess energy, clean water, and recycled waste to feed into surrounding neighborhoods.
