The Hills at Governors Island continue to Rise
26-05-2015
While Governors Island celebrated opening weekend on May 23rd, the Hills, which comprise Phase 2 of West 8's work on Governors Island are reaching new heights. Three of the four hills, (Grassy, Slide and Discovery) are already at their rough grade, aka their approximate height before adding soil for planting grass, trees and other vegetation.

The public was given a chance to explore this new topgraphy during a Jane’s Walk hard hat tour earlier in May. See the full recount on Curbed: The Hills Are Coming to Life on Governors Island.
