One of the many great things about NYU is Washington Square Park. Surrounded by NYU classrooms, dorms, and other facilities, it acts as NYU's quad, a public square, and in these days of nice weather is a place to sit and marvel at how amazing it is to live in Greenwich Village. I particularly enjoy sitting out there shooting the breeze with a friend, reading a book, or soaking up the assorted characters of the Village. Unfortunately, massive and generally pointless renovations are scheduled to begin in June, and it will render the park impotent for 2 (scheduled) years. However, given that the 2 year timeframe given for the Washington Square Arch renovation expanded to a robust 9.5 years, I'd say the City inspires skepticism in its estimates.
I'm not much of an activist, but there are some things that are worth fighting for. Go HERE to get information about what you can do. Don't be passive on such a crucial issue.
