Like many of its Southern neighbors, Chelsea, has had a rich and eclectic history. What was once a predominately Irish settlement (specifically longshoremen), is now the stomping ground for a wide spectrum of individuals.
Copious galleries, incredible restaurants, exciting nightspots, and charming tree-lined streets, make this the perfect district for artists, families, professionals, and students.
Home-to the famed Chelsea market, Chelsea Hotel, Manhattan’s first Whole Foods, and a myriad of excellent shopping options—Chelsea—provides its residents with all of the city’s conveniences, while still retaining a quiet sensibility.
It is also a neighborhood recognized for its tolerance, catering to persons from all walks of life, regardless of ethnicity of sexual orientation.
