NYU eyeing the WTC site are for the unending need to expand
How ironic because if NYU had done this in the first place the WTC area would have been rebuilt already. Walk past 120 East 12th Street and see the facade of St. Ann's from 1847 that survived everything but NYU's need and greed to build yet another mega dorm in the East Village. The USPS owned the air rights over St. Ann's and was legally obligated to notify the State of NY so the State would come in and examine is this in the best interest of the community but just like chronically blocking the fire hydrants around the corner the USPS was confident it was above the law. NYU and the USPS did not care about what is best for the community. I just wrote a long piece exposing NYU including how I over heard a staff member bragging about getting a zero mortgage from NYU and how Bobst Library is the only university library to have to install suicide barriers because NYU's library was the student suicide spot for kids to kill themselves. NYU used the term community facility to bust through zoning yet they exclude the community. I asked NYU, Mike Bloomberg on the John Gambling show to protect us from NYU and to make NYU give us community outreach resource centers in ever mega dorm so the students see the community they are over whelming is struggling and get involved in volunteering. I even wrote President Obama asking for him to pressure NYU to implement this because NYU is gobbling up the communities where ever they expand. NYU set the precedent for Cooper Union, The New School, SVA, NY Law to all join NYU in mega dorming the East Village to death and further displace the East Village. I went to bed in the East Village and woke up in a bad xerox of mid-town turning in to a bad xerox of Dubai. You see I lived next to St. Ann's and I witnessed NYU's special free passes to work 7 days a week and late nights. NYU has made the Village east and west look like the finanical district and that was clearly Mike and Amanda, socialite mega millionaire the people's Burden goal. NYU zone busting lead the way for hotels to come in and an entire transitory population of college students and tourists as the community was pushed out in all kinds of clever ways. NYU is the evil empire. NYU is the purple reign of terror using higher ed status as a tax shelter to buy up as much property as possible at the communities expense in way too many ways including displacement.

Again we learn why John Sexton ran down to testify that Bloomberg must have a third term.
Can Sexton even vote in NY?
