The New York City School Construction Authority (SCA) is proposing the development of a new primary/intermediate school facility with a total capacity of approximately 480-seats for Community School District No. 3 in Manhattan. The proposed site is located at the southwest corner of West 61st Street and West End Avenue on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and is part of the larger Riverside Center development. The proposed site is located within a new mixed use building ("Building No.2") that will be constructed as part of Riverside Center. Under the proposed project, on behalf of the New York City Department of Education, the New York City School Construction Authority would acquire a total of approximately 100,000 gross square feet within Building No.2 to accommodate the proposed primary/intermediate school facility. The SCA will continue to accept public comments on this proposal until April 19, 2012.
