Meatpacking District to Transform with New Housing and Cultural Hub

New York City plans to redevelop the last meat market site into a mixed-use space with affordable housing and expanded cultural facilities.

The redevelopment plan includes 600 mixed-income apartments, with half designated as affordable housing.
The site will feature an 11,200-square-foot public open space, potentially managed by the High Line.
The Whitney Museum and Friends of the High Line are in talks to expand their facilities on the newly available site.
Mayor Eric Adams and city officials are promoting the project as a significant urban development opportunity.
The current meat market tenants have agreed to vacate the premises ahead of their lease expiration due to outdated facilities.
