Tips for Visiting the Chelsea Piers:
  • Allow plenty of time to arrive at Chelsea Piers. Walking from the subway can take 20-30 minutes and there is often traffic on the West Side Highway making driving (or taking a taxi) sometimes slow as well.
  • Know where you're headed at Chelsea Piers -- each area is operated somewhat independently, and staff from one area won't necessarily know much about other areas.
