Manhattanville’s first installment, the Mind, Brain and Behavior Initiative, is rolling full steam ahead, and they’ve put together this new and exciting video to tell you about it. The building itself will be called the Jerome L. Greene Science Center, and it’s supposed to be done by 2015, by which time there should also be a new Business School and School of the Arts, and a new building for the Columbia Secondary School, a public high school for math, science and engineering. All 6.8 million shiny square feet of the Manhattanville campus should be completed by 2030.

@this sentence is great “…One of the benefits of the deep basement is to be able to take some functions that would have otherwise been on the ground, or on some upper stories of the building, and to move them below grade.”
Well, yes. That is the point of a basement, no?
@Anonymous Jerome L. Greene? again? I understand it’s the same donor but must his name be on everything?
@Fair point Let us know when you’re ready to sign the check.
