The Meatpacking District is home to the city’s hottest restaurants and bars, a number of upscale boutiques and salons, and if you’re up early enough, a bit of genuine old-fashioned meatpacking. Its advantages over other would-be hotspots (Hell’s Kitchen? Brooklyn, anyone?) include its deep downtown location, convenient to the financial district as well as the artier Soho and West Village, as well as, in places like the Gansevoort’s rooftop lounge, sweeping views of the Hudson River.
