How Cooper Union has been giving back

Many East Villagers are unhappy with Cooper Union these days. There's been a lot of talk about what they're taking away from the neighborhood. Like turning Astor Place into an office park. Or perhaps being unsympathetic to the plight of the St. Mark's Bookshop. But let's be fair. Cooper Union has been giving to the neighborhood...

Such as with the free outdoor air conditioning. (We wrote about this here.)




...free outdoor urinal...


...and free place to rest for a moment...

don't forget all that Vitamin D-rich sunshine they donated to the neighborhood when they cut down the London Plane trees on Astor Place.
