2. Purpose
To assess all measures and parameters deemed necessary to
ultimately select a singular site for a proposed Stanford Auxiliary
Science and Engineering campus in the City of New York.

3. Mayor Questions
Developed Property with Existing Neighborhood Infrastructure
(Large Capital Investment, Small Infrastructure Investment)
VS.
Area of low economic and social vitality with a promise for
opportunity
(Large Infrastructure Investment, Small Capital Investment)

4. Vision
The Stanford’s NYC campus is poised to become one of the
world’s leading schools for business and engineering,
establishing New York City as the East Coast’s center for
entrepreneurship and innovation. Collaboration with local
universities will reinforce the learning environment, enhance
human capital, and foster the advancement of human
ingenuity. In partnership with the city government, local
community, and area high-tech firms, the Stanford NYC
campus will become integral in addressing some of today’s
most challenging technological issues, infusing sustainability
and integrity at its core philosophy, and promoting a spirit of
passionate pursuit for the betterment of mankind.

Natural Factors (15%)
Plots in the zone area A will most likely need to evacuate the area in a case of a
bigger hurricane. This is connected with expenses and certain degree of
uncertainty.
Sea Level Rise
Plots within the plausible sea level rise will need to be design in a way, to
achieve higher grounds. This is connected with higher expenses. Higher grounds,
above the street level is also a design challenge which prioritize plots with higher
altitude.
As a result of a study that has shown poor condition of city air on Manhattan
one of the main goals of PlanYC is to improve air quality
Proximity to large, green open space/park
Offers a possibility for a retreat and therefore it is certain benefit for the
university to advertise itself, or also a possibility to do a research in it.
