UP AND COMING: the meatpacking district (MePa) in ny, or as it is known now, gansevoort market, has easily become one of the most fashionable neighborhoods in the world. prior to the late 90s, before the district underwent a dramatic transformation, prostitutes, transsexuals, and drug dealers operated the over 250 slaughterhouses lining its streets. shockingly, under only 10 years, this number has substantially descended to 35. today, alexander mcqueen, stella mccartney, diane von furstenberg, and christian louboutin house boutiques here, while establishment restaurants like buddha bar, tenjune, and apt have recently opened to serve young professionals. soho house: new york is a jaw-dropping example of one transformation that has taken place in MePa. the 24 bedroom, 6 floor hotel, offers guests a combination of luxury and style. fully equipped with private eucalyptus steam rooms, a cowshed spa (www.cowshedonline.com), screening room, private library/seafood bar, and games room, the hotel may be less for sleep and more for exploration. in hot months visitors can sprawl on the all day rooftop terrace equipped with a heated pool offering fantastic views over the west village and hudson river. book fast, this place hustles.
