New York, NY —
The Hispanic Society is looking to move downtown from its Washington Heights home. The group has one of the largest Hispanic art collections outside of Spain -- with paintings by Goya and El Greco -- but very few people come up to 155th Street see it.
REPORTER: Director Mitchell Codding says he wants to expand the audience without losing its roots:
CODDING: We clearly want to maintin links to the Hispanic population bec that the core constituency. But the Hispanic population, as far as the society is concerned, is not limited to the immediate neighborhood.
REPORTER: Codding says the Society has been looking at real estate in Chelsea, Battery Park, and Midtown.
