About the Neighborhood

OVERVIEW

Directly north of Greenwich Village, the area known as Chelsea stretches from 14th Street to 30th Street, and Seventh Avenue to the Hudson River. After gentrification in the 1990s, Chelsea emerged as one of the hottest, hippest neighborhoods.

Now home to a burgeoning art scene, you’ll find many of the galleries that used to be in Soho, and production studios creating a swirl of activity on the western border. Add to that a great mix of restaurants, clubs and shopping, for a lively, high-energy feeling that attracts many young professionals.

SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS

• Just below 23rd Street on the Hudson River, the incredible, 30-acre Chelsea Piers Sports and Entertainment Complex provides ample space for everything from Olympic laps to racquet sports and golf practice. It’s also the venue for many of the city’s power parties and gala events.
• The Chelsea Market on Ninth Avenue offers a wide variety of the city’s finest foods, flowers and exotic imports in an impressive indoor setting.
• Shopping abounds at local, specialty boutiques or megastores like Bed Bath & Beyond, Loehman’s and  Barney’s Warehouse. Visit Jeffrey’s on West 14th Street, where the fashion crowd finds the latest looks.
• Enjoy a wide variety of great restaurants from casual cafes to cool bistros, with many delicious ethnic offerings.
• Movie theaters, clubs, cafes and bars create a great social mix.

LIFESTYLE

Chelsea is a great mix of busy and peaceful. While its main avenues hum with activity, tree-lined side streets with apartments and brownstones lend a quiet, residential air. Thus it attracts families as well as singles. While definitely a happening area, Chelsea is still growing and remains an affordable choice. It’s a fun place to live, with easy access to the rest of the city via the IRT and bus lines.
