Strikes as profoundly remiss to editorialize like this sans mentioning Columbia's intension to literally take over what is here characterized as "a unique section of Harlem". Without taking a position either way, it is in the papers and media nearly daily, no? I loved hearing Columbia's President last week on WNYC try to explain away and justify the use of the word Manhattanville and intentional avoidance of the word "harlem" in the titling, branding, and offical naming of the development. Yes, technically historically one can attach the word Manhattanville to a section of that proposed project, however it's "Harlem" and the Columbia Pres had a tough time dancing around this avoidance. Columbia simply does not want the label and brand of "Harlem" connected with this proposed expansion in it's titling. I actually land on the side of Pro Columbia expansion, however I still have to be honest that this is pure, outright applyinhg of a stigma, by CU, to the brand, label, image of the word "Harlem". “This location has contributed to the pioneering of a unique section of Harlem”.
