The High Line's entrance at Gansevoort and Washington Streets has stairs and an elevator. Its elevated gardens follow the former freight railway north toward 34th Street. Nearby, the Whitney focuses on American art, while Chelsea Market brings food shops and restaurants together indoors. Little Island adds landscaped paths and lawns over the Hudson. These places are within walking distance of the hotel, making it possible to combine art, food, and time by the river without crossing Manhattan. The West Village's restaurants and jazz clubs continue the evening farther south. Leica Gallery nearby provides another stop for photography, with work by local and international photographers shown alongside its camera store.
For a working visit, the Executive Boardroom accommodates six to twenty people, with videoconferencing equipment and an adjoining pre-function room. It provides a dedicated setting for a meeting away from the hotel's restaurants and lounges. An interactive whiteboard and large display support presentations, while the adjacent room provides space to gather before the meeting begins.
JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark Liberty are the main airport options. Guest Services can arrange a car, although the hotel has no airport shuttle. Valet parking is available. The nearby Eighth Avenue subway complex serves the A, C, E, and L lines, connecting this downtown address with other parts of the city. Journey times by road depend on traffic.
