Welcome to Chelsea


A contemporary NYC neighborhood as lively as it is charming

This incredibly artsy and hip NYC enclave has a diverse range of contemporary architecture, making for an urban playground. Chelsea's unique mixture of properties includes townhouses and converted factories, all sited within an easy, on-demand range of Upper and Lower Manhattan, and the neighborhood has also become the center for the likes of Google, Apple, and other behemoth tech firms. Chelsea's vibrant and lively communities are in some of the most pleasurably walkable parts of the city, creating the perfect backdrop for its youthful, ambitiously creative flair to fully unfold.

What to Love

  • An impressive art scene, which hosts a vast number of gallery openings
  • Limitless nightlife and fine-dining options that can suit any tastes
  • A prime location for those who routinely travel throughout Manhattan
  • The High Line, an incredibly unique elevated park running straight through Chelsea and giving breathtaking views of the mighty Hudson River

Local Lifestyle


Chelsea features some of NYC's cleverest use of real estate, giving the locals all the excuse they need to enjoy their walkably hip pocket of Manhattan. The area is also equally accessible to the Lower and Midtown Manhattan areas, from which even Upper Manhattan is just minutes away.

An incredible diversity of recreation and marketplace amenities make Chelsea a truly satisfying place, especially for those drawn to New York for its artistic and cultural gravity yet still seeking major city amenities. The creative use of Chelsea's pier area makes for limitless recreation opportunities for nature lovers and sporting enthusiasts — and during the neighborhood's major art gatherings, you can't help but get drawn into the impromptu charm.

Dining, Entertainment & Shopping


Chelsea Market is a lively indoor marketplace where vendors sell all the seafood, produce, and wares you'll need to keep your new Chelsea condo or townhome running in top form. There are also numerous international cuisine options, cafés, and dessert parlors here to choose from. Lovers of French cuisine will enjoy the full dramatic flair at Pastis, a bright and joyfully designed bistro serving equal parts decadent Parisian fare and satisfying American comfort food. Chelsea features a wide range of outstanding international cuisine throughout the district, making for unparalleled cultural amenities everywhere you turn.

Things to Do


Visits to The High Line are worth becoming a regular part of your routine. Built on a former rail line, the park is located 30 feet off street level, providing one of the most unique urban park experiences imaginable. Newcomers can quickly get an almost complete tour of the neighborhood's vibe, as the elevated green space takes visitors by the area's most refined and classic modern structures, eventually fanning outward to the lively Hudson River waterfront area.

Here, you can continue your urban recreation at the ever-vibrant Chelsea Piers sporting complex, which features golfing, ice skating, and other recreation options. The Art Gallery Crawl at Chelsea Market is an incredibly popular event, bringing the community together to experience some of the most ambitious and inspired modern art that you're likely to find anywhere throughout New York City outside a museum.

Schools


Chelsea's creative flair also expresses itself through its schools' technological savvy, which flourishes in these fine academic institutions:

  • Avenues, K–12, Very low student-teacher ratio and outstanding SAT and ACT scores
  • Chelsea Career and Technical Education High School, 9–12, Incredibly high reading proficiency (93%), with a 68% rate of AP-course involvement
