New dorm reaches street level on Cooper Square


[EVG photo from March 22]

The other morning we took a look through the blogger portals on the plywood at 200 E. Sixth St. at Cooper Square… where a 13-floor dorm is in the works for Marymount Manhattan College.

And the building is now up to the street level …





One of these days it will look something like this rendering…

  2. just what we need. more student housing.
    please make sure to have a ground floor complete with a pizza joint, a fro yo shop, a bank, a big bar with no food, make that two banks, and at least one ramen shop that is open 24 hours.

  5. A dorm for a school that's on the upper east side. Okay schools, let's all just dump our kids below 14th street. That's where all the cool bars are anyways. Duh. Time for a new name for us--Dorm Village.

  6. I hope they find a way to incorporate all that griffiti into the new dorm. It's sooo urban and artistic.

  7. That's a lot of windows that are gonna lose any access to fresh air and sunlight. Did we learn nothing from the Five Points?

    Also: What type of future do students have with no employment?
