The Meatpacking District runs from 14th Street south to Gansevoort Street, and from Hudson Street west to the Hudson River. This nine-block neighborhood is famous for its historic Belgian block cobblestone streets (Gansevoort, Little West 12th, and Washington Street), its transformation from industrial meatpacking to high-end dining and nightlife, and its unique street layout that defies Manhattan's grid — West 4th Street crosses West 12th Street here, and Little West 12th sits four blocks north of actual 12th Street.
The Whitney Museum of American Art at 99 Gansevoort Street anchors the southern edge. The Standard High Line hotel at 848 Washington Street — home to Le Bain rooftop bar (open until 4 AM Wed–Sun) — straddles the elevated High Line park. Google's 2.9-million-square-foot NYC campus at 111 8th Avenue and the adjacent Chelsea Market sit across 9th Avenue, bringing thousands of daily commuters and tech-industry visitors to the area.
Three primary ride intents define the neighborhood: late-night nightlife transfers (peak hours 11 PM–3 AM Fri/Sat) from venues like Catch, STK Rooftop, Le Bain, and Tao Downtown; daytime museum and High Line visitor pickups; and corporate pickups for Google employees and Chelsea Market businesses heading to airports or Midtown meetings.
True North VIP provides professional car service throughout the Meatpacking District with chauffeurs trained in cobblestone navigation, 14th Street Busway restrictions (6 AM–10 PM daily between 3rd–9th Avenues), late-night venue coordination, and the non-grid street layout that confuses GPS routing.
Three distinct zones based on street type, traffic patterns, and primary destinations. Each requires different staging tactics.

The Meatpacking District transforms after 10 PM. Friday and Saturday nights peak between 11 PM and 3 AM. Our chauffeurs know the venue coordination protocols and quiet staging streets that keep you moving.
18th-floor rooftop bar with heated plunge pool and 360° views. Open Wed–Sun until 4 AM. The Standard Hotel at 848 Washington Street has main entrance staging on Washington Street northbound. For late-night pickups (1–4 AM), text your chauffeur 10–15 minutes before exit so they can move into position. Security coordinates with drivers at the main entrance. The hotel straddles the High Line — do not attempt to exit onto the High Line at night.
Contemporary seafood restaurant at Little West 12th Street and 9th Avenue. Peak dinner hours 7–10 PM, late-night crowd until midnight on weekends. Our chauffeurs stage on 9th Avenue northbound between Little West 12th and 13th Street. The entrance is recessed from the street — coordinate your exit timing so your chauffeur can be at the curb when you walk out. Pre-book your departure ride when you arrive at the restaurant.
STK Rooftop (26 Little West 12th) and Tao Downtown (92 Ninth Avenue at 16th Street) are both high-energy dinner-and-nightlife venues. STK pickups use Little West 12th staging — cobblestone street, reduced speeds. Tao Downtown is just north of the Meatpacking District in Chelsea with smooth 9th Avenue curbside access. Both venues see peak exit traffic 11 PM–1 AM on weekends. Your chauffeur coordinates with venue security for seamless pickup.
Iconic French bistro that reopened in 2019 at its new Gansevoort Street location. Always packed for brunch and dinner. Limited curbside space on Gansevoort (cobblestone street). Our chauffeurs stage on Little West 12th near Washington Street — one block north — for easier vehicle positioning. Walk one block north from Pastis and your chauffeur will be waiting. For large groups or late-night departures, text your chauffeur when you ask for the check.
The West Side Highway (West Street) is your fastest route to all three major airports. LaGuardia north via RFK Bridge, JFK south via Holland Tunnel, Newark south via Holland Tunnel to NJ Turnpike.

Select point-to-point for restaurant or venue transfers, hourly for venue-hopping, or airport for flight connections. Each has flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees.
Provide your pickup location (venue name or address), destination, date, and time. For late-night pickups (11 PM–3 AM), we recommend booking before you arrive at the venue.
You get an instant confirmation with your flat-rate quote, chauffeur name, and vehicle details. For airport pickups, we begin monitoring your flight immediately.
Your vetted chauffeur is positioned at the optimal staging location for your venue — avoiding cobblestone congestion and coordinating with venue security. You receive a text with the exact vehicle position.
For domestic arrivals, your chauffeur waits up to 45 minutes after landing at no extra charge. For international arrivals, up to 60 minutes. If your flight is delayed, we adjust automatically — no rebooking needed.
For late-night venue pickups (11 PM–3 AM), text your chauffeur 10–15 minutes before you are ready to leave. We adjust staging in real time based on your actual exit time — no rigid pickup windows.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before your scheduled pickup. Cancellations within 24 hours may incur a partial charge. No-shows are charged the full fare.
Rear-facing infant seats, forward-facing toddler seats, and booster seats available at $25 each. Request when booking and they arrive pre-installed and safety-checked.
Cobblestone streets, non-grid layout, 14th Street Busway restrictions, and late-night rideshare surge pricing make on-demand pickups chaotic. Reservations eliminate the confusion and guarantee your chauffeur is positioned before you exit.
Our chauffeurs are trained in Belgian block cobblestone navigation. Reduced speeds, smooth approaches, safer rides in wet or snowy conditions.
Your quote is locked at booking. No surge during late-night hours (11 PM–3 AM), bad weather, or weekend nightlife peaks. The price you see is the price you pay.
