2014 District Report

Letter from the MPIA
Meatpacking District Community,
The past year has been one of the most exciting years for the organization and
the neighborhood. MPIA held our first fundraiser, OPEN MARKET, a celebration of
this diverse community that brought together many of our member businesses
under one roof at Highline Stages. Co-hosted by Diane von Furstenberg and
Andrew Rosen, the event attracted hundreds of people to shop sample sales from
area retailers and savor the best food and drink from local restaurants. OPEN
MARKET generated tons of positive press for the district, and raised funds for
MPIA to expand our services. With more than 65 businesses involved, the event
was a true reflection of the dedication and pride for our neighborhood that thrives
within our business community.
As part of our efforts to engage the public with the Meatpacking District, we
expanded our community programming to include a monthly yoga series with
exhale spa, a summer concert series, and our second annual Harvest Fest.
Outdoor yoga created an urban oasis for the public to enjoy and allowed them to
find their zen in the middle of the bustling cobblestone streets. In its second year,
Harvest Fest attracted more than 1,500 people to Gansevoort Plaza for a day
filled with food, live music and fall activities.
On February 1, 2014, MPIA took over the operation and management of the
Chelsea Improvement Company (CIC). Similar to the services run by MPIA,
CIC provides sanitation, landscape maintenance, and public safety. CIC is also
the DOT plaza partner in maintaining and managing the public plaza known as
the Chelsea Triangle, located on 9th Avenue between 14th and 15th Street.
Additionally, CIC has installed over three million dollars in capital improvements
since its inception in 2009. Working together under the management of MPIA, the
organizations have expanded the services for the combined district.
In the coming year, we are excited to see the completion of several major
developments in the area, including 837 Washington and the High Line
headquarters, as well as the continuation of projects such as the Whitney
Museum and the groundbreaking of 860 Washington. As a community we should
welcome these changes, and at the same time we must proactively prepare to
handle the challenges such evolution will bring to our neighborhood. To that end,
a group of stakeholders have proposed the creation of a business improvement
district (BID). The proposed BID will allow us to expand and enhance existing
services in the district and add some new, keeping our neighborhood clean, safe,
beautiful, and interesting for visitors and locals alike.
We are honored to work with such a dynamic group of businesses, property
owners and partners, and look forward to seeing what we will accomplish
together in the coming year.

The Meatpacking District is an epicenter of activity with people seeking a quality
experience and a unique atmosphere, and attracting an eclectic mix of businesses
and a nearby community of active residents and visitors. While these businesses
have brought a new dimension to the area, the neighborhood remains steeped in
history and retains its character with its distinctive architecture, streetscapes and
cobblestone streets. It is the juxtaposition of the historical with the contemporary
that makes the area one of New York’s most dynamic and interesting
neighborhoods.
The predominantly commercial Meatpacking District is located between two
mixed-use neighborhoods with active and engaged residential populations:
Chelsea to the north and the West Village to the south.
With meat packing from 3am-11am,
daytime shopping, lunch, and office
activity from 9am-7pm, dinner
and nightlight from 7pm-4am, the
Meatpacking District is a balanced
24-hour ecosystem in one of the
last true commercial districts in
Manhattan.

District Updates
Chelsea Improvement Company
On February 1, 2014, MPIA entered into a management agreement to
manage the operations of the Chelsea Improvement Company (CIC).
Since 2007 CIC has served the blocks between 14th Street and 17th
Street, from 10th/11th Avenue to 8th Avenue, seeking to improve the
daily experience for those who live, work and visit the area.
Similar to MPIA, CIC runs a mix of services including sanitation,
landscape maintenance, and public safety, and also programs in the
Chelsea Triangle plaza. Additionally, CIC has installed more than three
million dollars in capital improvements since its inception. A non-profit
redevelopment corporation, CIC is funded by Chelsea Village Associates,
Google, Jamestown, Taconic Investment Partners and The Related
Companies.
This new partnership between MPIA and CIC helps to streamline
operations, brings an increased presence of ACE Clean Team workers to
the area, and enhances the overall level of service.

Exploring a Business Improvement
District (BID) for the neighborhood
A group of stakeholders associated with the MPIA and CIC have begun
exploring the formation of a Business Improvement District (BID) for
the Meatpacking District and a few blocks of southwest Chelsea.
BIDs are public-private partnerships in which commercial property
owners elect to assess themselves, creating a special tax district
in order to fund a range of services to benefit a hyper-local area or
specific community. Formation of a BID would enable the MPIA and CIC
to continue their work on behalf of the areas already being serviced,
expand the service area and add services in advance of the next wave
of exciting developments set to open within the district.
Becoming a BID would also provide a stable and secure source of
funding and the ability to proactively respond to the many changes
and increased visitation coming to the neighborhood in the months and
years ahead.
To learn more about the proposed BID, visit meatpackingbid.org.

Looking Ahead
district developments
The Whitney
Downtown Museum
The Whitney Museum of American Art continues to make great
progress on the construction of its new home in the Meatpacking
District, which is projected to open to the public in spring 2015. The
building is now fully enclosed and its sculptural, multifaceted profile
can be seen from many points in the neighborhood. In 2014, the
final exterior panels will be installed and the interior work will be
completed. You can view ongoing construction photos at whitney.org/
future.
A transformative project for the Whitney and the Meatpacking District, the new building is being achieved
with the support of New York City, New York State, the MPIA, downtown neighbors, the arts community and
all of the Whitney’s supporters.
837 Washington Street
Developed by Taconic Investment Partners and Thor Equities,
837 Washington Street is an existing landmark structure that
has been restored and integrated within a new 55,000 square
foot building designed by Morris Adjmi. Located at the corner
of Washington and 13th Streets, the iconic structure boasts
a twisting exterior frame, expansive storefronts, divided light
window wall, and planted setbacks with outdoor terrace space
overlooking the High Line.
860 Washington Street
860 Washington Street, located adjacent to the Highline at 13th and Washington
Street, is currently under construction and will be completed in summer 2015.
The 10 story boutique office building, designed by James Carpenter Design
Associates, offers a stunning glass and steel structure with two dramatic retail
floors and high-end office space. The floors boast high ceilings and expansive
glass that offer continual views over the Highline, the Empire State Building and
downtown Manhattan. The development is a partnership between Property Group
Partners and Romanoff Equities.
Ninth Avenue
Reconstruction
The city is planning a replacement of the water mains
that run under Ninth Avenue from 16th Street to
Gansevoort Street. It will be followed by a full scale
reconstruction to landmark specification of the area
that will both create an exciting, accessible public space
and improve the roadway and sidewalk infrastructure.
The project will bring the deteriorated roadway and
sidewalks to a state of good repair, improve safety,
mobility and access for all travel modes and create
permanent public spaces. The engineering will be led by URS and the design work will be performed by
Rogers Marvel Architects and Ken Smith Landscape Architect, PC.
This project will also require coordination and approval from city agencies including NYCDOT, NYSDOT, NYC
Parks, NYC DEP, MTA, Landmarks Preservation, and Community Boards 2 and 4.

MPIA: FAQ
How was the MPIA formed?
In 2010, a small group of neighborhood
property owners and tenants met
with the MPDI (Meatpacking District
Initiative) to resolve the issue of the
neighborhood’s unfunded and unmaintained public plazas. Together,
they formed the MPIA, a 501(c)(3)
not-for-profit to continue the services
of the MPDI and redesign, maintain,
and manage the neighborhoods’ public
plazas in partnership with the NYC DOT.
Are there still Meatpacking houses
in the area?
There are approximately five remaining
meatpacking businesses in the
neighborhood. All of them are located
in the Gansevoort Market Co-op, which
is a block of buildings that the City
rents to these companies at subsidized
rents.
How does the MPIA represent area
businesses?
The MPIA cultivates relationships
among area businesses by providing
networking opportunities, producing
marketing events and programs,
managing a public relations effort,
printing a widely distributed map of
the area and maintaining an interactive
neighborhood website.
Where do MPIA dues and
contributions go?
MPIA dues and contributions go toward
the operation of the MPIA, allowing
the organization to market the district
and the businesses that call it home.
Contributions also help the MPIA fund
the maintenance services and public
plaza management and programming.
In addition to contributions from
neighborhood property owners and
businesses, the MPIA generates funding
through the programming of the
public plazas, corporate sponsorships,
individual donations and our annual
fundraiser.
How often does the MPIA meet?
There is an annual stakeholders
meeting every spring, and throughout
the year there are many smaller
meetings, and networking events to
attend. To receive regular neighborhood
updates, sign up for our newsletter at
meatpacking-district.com and follow us
at @MeatpackingNY.
Can I make a compliant to
MPIA about an issue in the
neighborhood?
While the MPIA does not handle
formal complaints, we encourage local
community members to be active
participants in important neighborhood
issues. MPIA wants to understand the
concerns of our community, and can
refer members to local community
boards or to city agencies for specific
problems. Becoming involved in the
MPIA is one way to form relationships
with other members who may share
your concerns. Joining your community
board is another way to get involved.
