Community forum tomorrow night (Thursday!) on the new Mount Sinai Downtown Beth Israel



As you likely know, Mount Sinai Beth Israel is creating a new “Mount Sinai Downtown” network, which includes a 70-bed facility at 14th Street and Second Avenue.

And tomorrow night, officials will be holding a community forum about their plans. Here are the details (the location has been changed — those flyers you've seen around the neighborhood have the wrong location...)

And MIGHT that new complex look like on 14th Street and Second Avenue? Here are two renderings...

    Hey Mount Sinai!
    Thanks for trying to do something architecturally interesting.
    But all of that jutting sharpness is just threatening and off-putting!
    Getting medical care in a low-stress way is already difficult enough.
    No need to scare both patients and the entire neighborhood!
    PLEASE GO BACK TO DRAWING BOARD.
    Thank you.
