NYC Neighborhood Guide | Meatpacking District

Today we are exploring another neighborhood, Meatpacking District. If you have ever watched Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Sex & The City, or Fatal Attraction you are familiar with this little neighborhood in New York. The cobbled streets make for a perfect Instagram, but do not bode well for wearing heels to the handful of nightclubs in the area. Meatpacking District spans about 5 blocks south of 14th street on the Hudson River. We love this tiny little neighborhood so much that we frequent it quite often. This is also where Shelbs met Harry Styles!
