Are all of the buildings of NYU high-rise buildings? I think that's pretty sweet! The bobst library looks really cool

ohhhradio

It depends on the buildings really, but most of them have multiple floors. It's NYC, so you're not going to find many two story buildings out there.

do Stern undergraduates take classes in Tisch hall or in the Kaufman management center???

Tisch, though a few classes are in KMEC.

how will the concourse project influence classes

deadlysyphen

- you'll have to go through tunnels (there are no tunnels yet, but there will be)
- there'll be more classes in KMEC
- there'll be classes during common hour

that sucks but the building looks like crap and needs to be fixed up a bit

deadlysyphen

i hope they fix up the third floor study lounge. that place looked nice in the beginning of the year when it was new. it's amazing how much destruction can occur when people study.

isn't that a good thing? the KMEC is newer than Tisch hall and looks so much much cooler and more sophisticated than Tisch hall

Who said it was a bad thing? (Seriously, the original question / reply said nothing about good/bad)

In my opinion, though, you will be slightly inconvenienced overall - the classrooms are pretty much the exact same on the inside; what the building looks like on the outside won't make any difference to your class experience; and KMEC doesn't have any undergrad facilities like study lounges or computer labs so you'll be forced to trek back and forth between Tisch and KMEC to get things done.

What's the concourse project?

Tisch will be completely remodeled. This means a variety of different sized classrooms rather than the default 50-60 seats. So there will be rooms with 20, rooms with 40, rooms with 60. It'll be a rather radical change inside the building, and from the outside? Wow! They're going to tear down the entire front facade off and replace it with glass. Too bad I'll graduate before it's fully operational.
