    Please urge the borough president to vote NO!

    Email him at his office NOW. bp@manhattanbp.org

    There is still time to show your opposition to the mass destruction and development to Greenwich Village.

    Never forget Jane Jacobs!!!

    It seems to me that they are staying within the bounds of the area that is already pretty heavily developed around NYU.
