Agree with Jilliebean’s description. Do not agree that it is similar to NYU. NYU buildings completely dominate whole contiguous blocks between Wash Sq Park and Broadway and from 4th Street up to Waverly, and spread out less densely from there. If you are standing in the middle of those blocks, it does feel like you are on a (very urban) campus. Not so with Emerson–it is a realtively small number of buildings in close proximity to each other, really not like the overhwelming presence of NYU. Not saying one is better than the other, I just don’t think they are that similar.
