With the arrival of Columbia University's Manhattanville expansion-a campus master plan designed by architect Renzo Piano-it is now also a site of experimentation in the future of the twenty-first century university. Bringing together conversations with the architects and planners designing the Manhattanville campus, the educators who will inhabit its buildings, and essays from urban and architectural historians, this book both documents the making of Manhattanville and critically engages with the University's own history of expansion.
