The setting

Moxy NYC Chelsea stands at 105 West 28th Street, a side street in Midtown South, in the Flatiron and Union Square part of Manhattan. Penn Station is about 0.3 miles (0.5 km) away in a straight line, which keeps rail arrivals simple. The High Line is about 0.7 miles (1.2 km), Hudson Yards and the Vessel about 0.8 miles (1.3 km), Times Square and Grand Central Terminal about 0.9 miles (1.4 km) each, Central Park about 1.6 miles (2.5 km), and the 9/11 Memorial about 2.7 miles (4.3 km). JFK is about 13 miles (21.4 km) in a straight line.

Location and neighborhood

Midtown South, Flatiron and Union Square arrange themselves along the spine of Fifth Avenue and Broadway, from the greenmarket at Union Square up to the blocks around Penn Station. The Flatiron Building stands at the wedge where Broadway crosses Fifth, and Madison Square Park sits just north of it. Between them run the streets of NoMad and Koreatown, and the quieter hotel blocks of Midtown South. The grid holds: numbered streets run east to west, avenues north to south, with Fifth Avenue dividing east from west. Below 14th Street the older named streets take over.

Evenings here start early and stay local. The blocks around Koreatown keep late hours, and the side streets of NoMad and Midtown South fill with small dining rooms. Just west, the Theater District around Times Square takes over after dark, with about 40 Broadway houses and evening curtains typically at 7 or 8 pm; check the show, since times vary. The Empire State Building lights up the skyline above 34th Street. Weeknights are busier than weekends in this part of Manhattan, because the offices empty around six and the tables fill soon after.

Getting there and around

The district sits over Penn Station, so trains from New Jersey and Long Island arrive a short walk from Moxy NYC Chelsea, around 0.9 miles (1.4 km) by the street grid. Grand Central Terminal is a stop or two east on the subway, which runs 24 hours; tap a contactless card or phone at the turnstile and the system caps weekly spending. The airports lie further out, roughly 13 miles (21.4 km) away for the Queens and New Jersey airports, with the trip usually taking 45 to 75 minutes depending on traffic. The middle of the district is around 0.9 miles (1.4 km) from the door on foot. Buses and bike lanes share the avenues.

Nearby sights and food

Madison Square Park and Union Square anchor the district, both open to walk through. The Flatiron Building stands just south of Madison Square Park, and the Empire State Building is a short walk north on Fifth Avenue, with its open-air deck on the 86th floor. The High Line starts at Gansevoort Street and runs north to Hudson Yards, where the Vessel stands; both are within a comfortable walk or a short ride west. Grand Central Terminal is worth a look for the concourse alone. Broadway's theaters cluster around Times Square, and Little Island and Hudson River Park sit along the west side.

Eating here follows the shape of the district. Koreatown packs its blocks with barbecue tables, noodle shops and late-night counters, and the streets around NoMad hold a mix of Indian, Thai and Italian places, from counter service to long-set tables. Union Square draws a lunchtime crowd to its greenmarket on set days of the week, and the surrounding blocks have bakeries, delis and coffee bars for a quick breakfast. Steakhouses and old-line dining rooms cluster nearer the Theater District, where a pre-show table needs booking ahead. Reserve for dinner on weeknights; the after-work crowd arrives early.

A day from Moxy NYC Chelsea

A day from Moxy NYC Chelsea can begin at Union Square, where the greenmarket and the surrounding streets make an easy first hour with coffee. Walk north up Broadway past the Flatiron Building to Madison Square Park, then continue to the Empire State Building deck or west to the High Line and Hudson Yards, depending on the weather. Lunch fits Koreatown or the NoMad side streets. In the afternoon, ride east to Grand Central Terminal for the concourse and the surrounding blocks, or take the subway to the museums. Book an early dinner, then a Broadway curtain at 7 or 8 pm; check the show. Afterward, the walk back to Moxy NYC Chelsea passes through quieter streets.
