Afternoon in Chelsea
Start at the Vessel- This structure that looks like a honeycomb and is 16 stories tall. It has mixed reviews (I think it is a little ugly) but is definetly iconic
The vessel is the start (or end depending on your point of view) of the High Line. It used to be abandoned railroad tracks and is not a beautifully landscaped elevated walking path. They change out the sculptures and artisans regularly so it is always a new experience
While this video is a little out of date, it is a good visual of it!
Chelsea Market- You could spend hours exploring just this market! I always bring my friends here and try a new restaurant every time!
Starbucks Reserve- With only six cities in the world that have a Reserve Roastery this is not a place to miss if you are a coffee lover. You can get food and drink options unique to this location and a fantastic bar with a many cocktails including an espresso martini flight!
Didn't find anything to eat yet? Try the food hall at Pier 57! This is a new and spacious food hall that I just recently visited. They have a variety of ethnic food options and a fantastic rooftop that is open to the public!
