  • Hi, I'm David Hill with New York Habitat.

  • Welcome to the second half of our video tour

  • dedicated to the neighborhood of Chelsea.

  • Here in Manhattan, New York.

  • If you missed the 1 episode,

  • you can find it on our YouTube channel.

  • New York Habitat Video

  • with David Hill

  • Chelsea - Part 2, Manhattan, New York

  • This neighborhood is roughly bordered

  • by 14th street to the south,

  • 30th street to the north,

  • 6th Avenue to the east

  • and the Hudson River and West Street to the west.

  • In our first episode, we looked at the history of Chelsea,

  • including the origin of its name,

  • we took you to the Limelight Marketplace,

  • some art galleries along 20th St,

  • and the Hudson River park.

  • Now when the sun starts to set,

  • one of the best places to be in Chelsea

  • is the High Line.

  • The High Line was an elevated railway

  • that delivered goods up and down

  • the west side of Manhattan

  • until it was abandoned in the 80s.

  • Just recently the High Line was renovated

  • to serve as a park,

  • running from Gansevoort Street

  • in the Meatpacking District

  • to West 34th Street,

  • between 10th and 11th Avenues.

  • It's a great place to meet friends,

  • take a leisurely walk,

  • or have a picnic.

  • You'll want to keep an eye out

  • for some notable new architecture along the High Line.

  • Here are a few locations:

  • The IAC Building at 555 West 18th Street

  • The Chelsea Modern at 447 West 18th Street

  • And Jean Nouvel's Vision Machine at 100 Eleventh Avenue

  • For you fashion buffs out there,

  • Chelsea is home to the Fashion Institute of Technology,

  • the internationally recognized college for design,

  • fashion, communications, art, and business.

  • FIT's incredible campus takes up two square blocks

  • between 28th and 26th St on 8th Ave.

  • For you political buffs, you'll want to note

  • that the national office of the Communist Party USA

  • is located on the 8th floor of 235 West 23rd St.

  • For French popular culture buffs,

  • stop by the Saint Vincent De Paul Church on 23rd St.

  • Edith Piaf was married here in 1952.

  • If you're looking to have some fun in Chelsea,

  • you'll find theaters, dance classes

  • and even comedy clubs.

  • In the mood for a laugh?

  • The Gotham Comedy Club on West 23rd Street

  • is a sleek and elegant lounge

  • that hosts some of New York's finest comedy.

  • Or check out the famous Upright Citizens Brigade

  • on West 26th Street.

  • For a show or a concert,

  • here are a few of our favorite Chelsea venues:

  • The Joyce Theater at 175 8th Ave,

  • The Highline Ballroom at 431 West 16th Street

  • and the Magnet Theater at 254 W 29th St.

  • You'll find a great market in the area.

  • The Chelsea Market borders the Meatpacking District

  • and Chelsea.

  • This New York food destination aims to please.

  • Inside the old National Biscuit Company's factory

  • we can find a marketplace representing the best

  • that New York has to offer.

  • Here you can find vendors unique to the New York area,

  • selling everything from Sushi to Gelato.

  • Because Chelsea is such a melting pot of different cultures

  • and the fact that you have such great sources for food,

  • like the Chelsea Market,

  • the Farmer's Market at Union Square not far from here,

  • you really can eat whatever you like.

  • And if you want to shop at Chelsea Market,

  • you're going to need a kitchen.

  • Rent a furnished apartment

  • or vacation rental from New York Habitat

  • and you'll live like a local in Chelsea,

  • including having your own fully equipped kitchen.

  • There are far too many great restaurants in Chelsea

  • to mention them all.

  • However, here a few that I think are worth visiting:

  • Don Giovanni at 214 Tenth Ave.,

  • Del Posto at 85 10th Ave.,

  • Moonstruck Diner at 400 West 23rd St.

  • and Buddakan at 79 9th Ave.

  • Chelsea has also got some great cafés and bakeries.

  • Here are a few that you're sure to enjoy:

  • Café Grumpy at 224 W. 20th St.,

  • La Grainne Café at 183 9th Ave.

  • and Billy's Bakery at 184 Ninth Avenue.

  • And if you're looking for bars and lounges,

  • here are a few to get you started:

  • Raine's Law Room at 48 W. 17th St

  • And if you're in the mood for a casual,

  • fun, and unique bar setting,

  • come visit The Frying Pan.

  • This historic lightship was built in 1929,

  • spent 3 years at the bottom of the Chesapeake Bay,

  • and has now been salvaged and restored

  • as the ultimate "dive" bar.

  • Well my friends, that's a wrap of the second half

  • of our video series dedicated to Chelsea.

  • in the neighborhood,
