Immunization Record Ontario How To Get

Neighborhood: Chelsea

And we end our trip to West Coast by Manhattan Chelsea neighborhood that is a buffer between Midtown and Greenwich Village . This neighborhood, might as well say right away, I brood contempt poster. Certainly more ignorance than anything else, I am ready to admit. Here are some facets of Chelsea the guides indicate.

First there Ladies' Mile . I was talking to the Madison Square . It is this street, from years 1880, saw women in their best outfits to go shopping in department stores. I had a little (lot) of plant location, buildings are most visible on 6th Avenue between 18th and 23th Street. Here you will find pictures in bulk. Each building has its history, since no brand has gone now has survived all these years. Nothing to say, then, we knew to build things in flung ...

Scattered around the 23th Street, some buildings have a history feature. The Church of the Holy Communion is a church which, besides having a name the con, has a legendary nightclub in the 90s was a hub for drugs. The Corner was a famous theater, time, or Broadway shows were not yet installed a Midtown. Traffic Building was built by Macy's before they settled on the 34th. Chelsea Hotel is a legendary hotel that houses the wildest people, and saw them die qqs also not necessarily a natural death ( wiki explains everything). And finally, London Terrace Towers , is a complex built in 1930, a little the Stuyvesant Town, which offers more than 1,500 homes on a block!

Chelsea is also its historic heart. Between 20th and 22nd Street, 9th and 10th Avenue, probably the quietest blocks in the city. Very cute little houses, built by mid-1800. Italian Style, Greek Revival style, one is immersed in an atmosphere much more European than American. Quiet and relaxing. It loiters in the shade of trees, at the mere sound of birds. Sweet life ... Some pictures here .

And all the west, between 20th and 25th Street (ie just above the Meat Packing ), there are art galleries. Same story for the Meat Packing , Galleries District has offered to large warehouses cheaper elsewhere, on which the galleries were thrown. Some stores still work (movers, garage ...), and contrast with the creations of modern art.

So why after all that I do not Chelsea ? Probably because I see too clearly the role of money. Whoever did live or let die parts of this district. And that still governs. Silver vulgar Ladies' Mile as a Midtown ; money individualistic as a Historic District Gramercy ; money has haughty as the Gallery District Meat Packing. No, really, there's much better to do, walking south in the Village.
