Upon moving to New York, I presumed the meatpacking district was dingy and run-down, and this is judging completely off its name. I soon found that I was completely wrong. The area attracts big names for eating, shopping, and even living. Why?
Although there are many areas of NY with just as great an assortment of boutiques and shops and with much more convenient access, the meatpacking district has thrived. As the area continues to improve, people are drawn to the swanky night life, the popular strips of West Street and 14th Street, public transportation and great schools. The Highline is a great place to take a unique liesurely stroll, and places like the Chelsea Marketplace supply one-of-a-kind grocery shopping. The area is known for being hip and up-and-coming, and everyone wants to jump on the bandwagon.
