The property, which could go for as much as $250 million, currently includes three dormitories and research and community health facilities. The 4.2-acre site, bounded by 25th and 26th Streets and 1st Avenue and the FDR highway, is close to NYU’s dental school and Medical Center, and although NYU has not released details on its plans for the site, the university did indicate that some of its health programs could benefit from the location. The request for proposals on the site has been extended from March 7 to May 22. The winning bidder will be required to include space for the Julia Richmond Education Complex, which is being displaced by a new tower Hunter is building on the Upper East Side. 2008-03-18 00:00:00 http://www.plannyc.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=Issues&file=index&catid=1&issueid=95#1663 Hundreds of public school students marched through the Upper East Side to protest a proposal to give the Julia Richman Education Complex to Hunter College in exchange for a new building farther downtown.
