Residents Unhappy with Columbia Expansion

New York, NY —

Columbia University already owns over half the properties in the area near the Hudson River, between about 125th and 135th Streets. This is the part of Manhattan it wants to remake into a high-tech additional campus.

REPORTER: The planning process is underway, but it's moved past the talking phase - some residents and businesses in the neighborhood have left or are feeling the pressure to move. WNYC's Arun Venugopal has this update.
