Village Preservation proposed and successfully fought for landmark designation of much of the Meatpacking District in 2003. In 2007, Village Preservation successfully nominated the entire Meatpacking District, including Chelsea Market, to the State and National Registers of Historic Places. Village Preservation continues to work to protect the special architectural character of this entire neighborhood, opposing several zoning variances and proposed new developments within the historic district which required landmarks approval.
