Tune into WNYC right now to listen to Brian Lehrer’s interview with Lee Bollinger about Columbia‘s foray into real estate in the 125th Street ‘hood. You can also download the podcast later. Great show about Columbia, real estate, and what this means for Harlem and the greater NYC community. Lots of focus in the early portion of the show about what this means for the arts community alread living in that neighborhood…and what it means for Columbia’s School of the Arts.

Some great reporting on this elsewhere:
New York Times (one article of many)
