Neighbourhood
Source: https://www.timeout.com/newyork/manhattan/chelsea-manhattan-neighborhood-guide
For more than 130 years, Chelsea has been New York City's arts district attracting culture hounds from all over the globe. It started with the opening of the famous Chelsea Hotel that was meant to bridge class divisions and to "value the arts" and is now home to hundreds of art galleries that showcase the most iconic and innovative works in the world.
The neighborhood, which is bound by Sixth Avenue to the east and the Hudson River to the west and about 20 blocks from about West 14th to 34th streets, has only recently become a renowned cultural hub. It started as a Native American trading post, then it became an industrial hub with the Hudson River Railroad, and with the eventual abandonment of warehouses and lumber yards, it became a hotspot for punk music and art and would welcome the LGBTQ community, too. In recent years, it has seen major architectural development and an influx of some of NYC's coolest cultural venues and restaurants.
From great speakeasy bars and dives to flea markets and worthwhile gay bars, there's something for everyone, not just art fans. The completion of the High Line and the addition of Little Island have brought verdant, elevated promenades with great views of the neighborhood—a mix of industrial landmarks and gleaming new structures—which are just a few minutes' walk from the eateries and shops of the beloved Chelsea Market.

We have lived in Chelsea for 25+ years so we're happy to meet for a drink, walk around the city or provide off-the-beaten path recommendations.
If schedules align, we're happy to cook dinner for you in our home or host drinks on our rooftop, weather permitting. Pete is a chef 👨🏻🍳 who previously worked at two Michelin-starred NYC restaurants.
Would love to meet fellow PLU members who are passing through so feel free to reach out.
