Chelsea Piers
Opened in 1910, this was the place where the great transatlantic liners would disembark their passengers - the Titanic was en route when it sank in 1912
 

 

Head west along 23rd Street and brave crossing the West Side Highway to one of Manhattan's most ambitious waterfront projects, Chelsea Piers, a $100 million, 1.7-million-square-foot development along four Hudson River piers.

Opened in 1910, this was the place where the great transatlantic liners would disembark their passengers - the Titanic was en route when it sank in 1912.

In the 1960s, the piers fell into disuse and decay, but a recent infusion of money has transformed them into a thriving sports complex, with ice rinks and a landscaped golf driving range. Perhaps the best part of the development is its emphasis on public spaces , including a waterfront walkway of over a mile, and the pleasant park at the end of Pier 62.
