I fully agree. The school does not need to be in this part of town next to the WTC. Putting a city university building there is dumb.
Sell the site to a private developer, then take the money and build the school somewhere else.
By the way, do they even need a new building? Because if they've gone this long without the use of this building, something tells me they may not need one at this point.
