The Knight Foundation is supplying a significant cash infusion to Miami's version of the High Line.
"The Knight Foundation announced a $925,000 investment to support the use of technology in Miami's Underline public space project," reports Jason Plautz.
"The investment will help the nonprofit Friends of The Underline expand its staff and develop a technology master plan."
"The Underline is a planned 10-mile, 120-acre linear park that will stretch from downtown Miami to the suburbs underneath the Miami-Dade County Metrorail," explains Plautz.
