Where are they going to build it? Taking down the Eye Institute?
I hope the Eye Institute survives, it is a crucial, world class facility..It is where I had my successful cataract procedure.
16 floors of Studio Gang in Wash Heights sounds pretty good.
Well that’s a shame to lose a rare Art Deco building in this area.
Agree. Love the Art Deco buildings.
That’s unfortunate, that’s actually a cool and unique Art Deco building
Deny that permit. Build it somewhere else.
Lols. There is no open land up there, let alone for hospitals.
