The New Gansevoort: Pedestrian Godsend, Nightclubber Nuisance
A DOT team received a mix of gratitude and derision at Tuesday's public forum about recent pedestrian improvements in the Meatpacking District, which attracted an audience of about 100 people to the Housing Works offices on West 13th Street.
