Gansevoort

The Gansevoort Market Co-Op in the Meatpacking District may soon become the neighborhood's newest housing and cultural destination, City Hall officials

breakfast on Oct. 28, First Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer outlined a “vision” for Gansevoort Square, a 66,000-square-foot redevelopment plan on the market’s site at the corner of Little West 12th Street and 10th Avenue, that will feature the creation of 600 new mixed-income housing units, an open pavilion and the potential expansion of the nearby Whitney Museum of American Art.

Mayor Eric Adams said Monday that the vision for Gansevoort Square would only add to the Meatpacking District’s strength as a residential, cultural and entertainment destination. At the heart of the Gansevoort Square plan is the creation of 600 new mixed-income housing units, about half of which the city anticipates will be classified as affordable housing without any need for public subsidization of the development costs.

“The Whitney and the High Line are treasured institutions on the West Side, and I’m excited that they’re considering this opportunity,” said Bottcher. “I look forward to working with all stakeholders and the wider community to envision this site for cultural and park uses, along with the potential for much-needed affordable housing.”
