Food Trucks Get Vertical - NYTimes.com When it isn't all that easy to get to the food in your workplace or neighborhood, there is an option: The food can come to you. And so, for the last few months, fancy-food trucks have been traveling up the freight elevator of the 19-story Starrett-Lehigh Building at 601 West 26th Street in West Chelsea, to offer dining options five days a week to some 6,000 office workers and visitors. "This is the first indoor vertical food-truck court in the city, and as far as I know, the country," said David Weber, president of the New York City Food Truck Association, which was asked by the building's owner, RXR Realty, to curate the daily "truck collection" because of a paucity of lunchtime choices in the neighborhood, west of the High Line between 11th and 12th Avenues. As an article by Glenn Collins in Monday's New York section details, a rotating roster of a dozen food trucks - including Mexicue, the Rickshaw Dumpling Truck, the Treats Truck, the Red Hook Lobster Pound Truck and the Gorilla Cheese Truck - is dispensing interesting food to workers at Martha Stewart Living, Hugo Boss, Tommy Hilfiger and a clutch of advertising and design firms.
