The neighborhood has become an outlier among Manhattan’s shopping districts, but whether that’s sustainable or replicable remains to be seen  West 14th Street between Ninth and 10th Avenues   On a recent spring day in the Meatpacking District, a group of tourists argued over dinner plans as they stepped off the High Line onto 14th Street, two girls walked into stalled traffic to Instagram the streetscape behind them and three neon-vested construction workers stood at the curb discussing the many visible changes in the neighborhood.   This all took place in front of Jeffrey New York, the pioneering luxury clothing store that Jeffrey Kalinsky opened in 1999.   “I didn’t have any money [at the time],” Kalinsky told The Real Deal,explaining why he chose this corner of Manhattan.

Another One (1) Bedroom Condo Sold at the Village Pointe Condominium at 350 West 14th Street in the Meatpacking District NYC   We are happy to announce a successful closing for apartment 5-A at 350 West 14th Street.

The Village Pointe Condominium in the Meatpacking District Neighborhood Apartments for Sale Market Report May 2013   What is the Village Pointe Condominium building like? The Village Pointe is a boutique condominium with just about 50 residential units. Located at the entry point to the fantastic Meatpacking District Neighborhood in New York City.  It's address is 350 West 14th Street, essentially located where Ninth Avenue turns into Hudson Street on 14th Street. The Village Pointe does not have a no-doorma, however it has an elevator, live-in super and laundry facilities in the basement. What I consider very low common charge and real estate taxes make owning a unit in the building a very smart investment. The building is mainly made up of studio's and one bedroom apartments with a fe...

The Meatpacking District : Manhattan Neighborhood Spotlight   The Meatpacking District in New York City has established itself as one of downtown Manhattan's most exciting destinations. What was the center of the meatpacking industry in New York City, home to over 250 slaughterhouses in it's heyday in the early 1900s.
