“Tenth Avenue from the High Line — galleries below, water towers above, the city mid-sentence.”
Chelsea runs from 14th to 30th, river to Sixth Avenue, and manages to contain more art per block than most cities manage in total. The gallery district between Tenth and Eleventh Avenues is the reason serious collectors live here. The High Line turned an abandoned rail line into a 1.45-mile park that changed how New York thinks about its infrastructure — and its real estate.
