Meatpacking District Design Week features freebies
 The Meatpacking District Design Week will be in full force this weekend, with free tours, panel discussions, cocktail parties and gallery exhibitions on display in the rapidly changing neighborhood.
Among the sights to see, the Diane von Furstenberg store will be showing the Renzo Piano Building Workshop-designed model for the planned Whitney Museum of American Art on Gansevoort Street.
Design Week headquarters is at the new Standard Hotel, where you can pick up an event guide from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. through Sunday.
