W42ST

Welcome to W42ST! We showcase Hell's Kitchen, a lively and thrilling part of the most energetic city in the world. It's the perfect place for our magazine launch. Even though this neighborhood is filled with energy and excitement, it's surprisingly one of the lesser-known areas in New York. We’re not sure why that is, but each month, we’re working to change that!
