February 9, 2014 Photo Shoot - Mostly NYU2031 Building Plan Super Block Sites
The immediately affected building sites are on the super block south of Washington Square Village from Bleecker Street to Houston Street on the north & south boundaries and LaGuardia Place to Mercer Street on the west & east boundaries. Planned skyscrapers there will basically destroy the LaGuardia Corner Community Gardens, park and garden areas, the NYU Gym building and community dog run. The planned skyscrapers will continue NYU's destruction of Greenwich Village's skyline in the area.
The demonstration in this photo shoot was organized by SLAM (NYU Student Action Movement - See https://www.facebook.com/slamnyu ) and the NYU Faculty Against the Sexton Plan (FASP).
